Bemused pigeons and gulls
chase lifting snowflakes
above the Wensum
not being au fait with weather
maybe thinking things that fly up
contain protein not just ice
or were they playing
as school children might
flapping around with mouths wide
trying to catch ice crystals
on waggly tongues
having heard that each flake is unique
although they all taste the same
