People often refer to their pastimes as being their passion. Another interpretation of passion is the strong emotion of love. Valentine’s Day is celebrated every 14 February. On that day, many cards are exchanged and fl owers delivered.
The poem you will now read is about an unlikely love story.

‘A Crow and a
Scarecrow’ BY CAROL ANN DUFFY
A crow and a scarecrow fell in love out in the fi elds. The scarecrow’s heart was a stuffed leather glove but his love was real. The crow perched on the stick of a wrist and opened her beak: Scarecrow, I love you madly, deeply. Speak.
Crow, rasped the Scarecrow, hear these words from my straw throat. I love you too from my boot to my hat by way of my old tweed coat. Croak.
