Thank you, Anni. Maybe I'm a masochist because I do like making things difficult for myself. I considered rhyming each line as well, but that was a bridge too far. Perhaps next time...

no whisper of the grocer,
no cheery whistle,
to greet the dawn,
shutters locked,
on his daily stall,
but in the grocer’s market plot
he lies, face down, in rhubarb.
