REST

 

Ivy and smoke

riddles and bones

ash and soil

 

Yew and elder

old cold stone

pinecone and moss

 

Jet black crows

rest and hop

crack crack craw

 

St Everilda's rests

in the nether

down lanes

along childhood

 

At the end of

foot worn tracks

 

Manhood past

amonst roses

and lawn

 

Field rolling roughly

to end as sandy

overhangs by the Ouse

 

Robin and Blackbird

sing out their praises

Red berrys and holly
