#38: Right Now On ITV

It is so beautiful.
A gentle old man is serving crumpets
in his cottage, handing china plates to guests.
He places a dish of butter in the centre of the table,
the healthy yellow of daffodils on a hillside.
He looks like a Swiss toymaker.
He pours tea from a steaming pot.
His guests eat happily.
A labradoodle stretches out by the fire.

No one is watching.
The picture cuts to snow.
