I met a marbled salamander in the tall grass,
and picked her up before the cats did
(though it was a young rabbit they were more concerned with).
I put her into the pile of wood that will someday be a fertile hugel,
and told her to eat as she liked,
but if she could help herself especially to any slugs I'd be grateful.
(Poor rabbit,
but I'm developing a gardener's callouses.)
