Flow of spring beside the tracks.
Bend of river’s shingle bank
occupied by Whooper’s elegant lounge.
Hip like curve sinks to moist valley
then rises to a belly mound hill.
Distant lace edged horizon
naked with late winter oaks
abundant in their twisting forms.
Dull copper bracken awaits
a few degrees swell to break green.
Neat fields sprinkled with new lambs
and a dark dusting of crows.
Sanctuary of Devon hedge banks
South West landscape I’m home.

Divine. The imagery is elegant. Sounds a little wistful, Gilly. I enjoy reading this.
Wonderful writing, Gilly. 🙂
ah, so peaceful. Lovely images. Just lovely.
Love it!
BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!
“….Neat fields sprinkled with new lambs,
and a dark dusting of crows.”
Loved these lines particularly Gilly. Beautiful and evocative.
Moving and beautiful poetry.
