nothing to be frightened of

Here's the fourth of the series of eight cards that the Scottish Poetry Library has produced for National Poetry Day (the theme this year is light) ...

... it's by Carol Ann Duffy - and can also be read in full here:


The Dark

If you think of the dark
as a black park
and the moon as a bounced ball,
then there’s nothing to be frightened of
at all.

(Except for aliens…)
