Haiku Bob: round 16 – fingers of sun



Saints get the first –
Magpies and seagulls
form huddles






blustery day –
Swan’s first half dozen
to collect his thoughts






noon chill –
players dropping marks
I blow into my hands






winter echoes –
Heater’s mark again
on the big screen






stop start wind –
forwards turn defenders
turn forwards






long winter –
Leigh Brown
becomes lifelike






wind in my bones –
Ball’s jumper
stained with grass






winter mist –
the coach bellows
to the huddle






dusk –
Wellingham weaves through fingers
of sun
