The Diary of a Countryside Lady on 15.5.2010 @13.20

by annamarie causer 15 May

Betwixt & between the woven trees

& knotted leaves,

snowing

blossom & whereby

ne'er

the byways,

pathways 

e'er 

overlap nor deign to cross, 

I stood stock-still @ a complete loss

to explain

the elevation I did'st gain.

A deer, roe, female too, head turned toward I

she noted I - a spy,

and I her too - did'st [silent] espy.

This

is

wherein the land doth lie

silent & still

'neath Mary's castle, o'er vale,

down covert dale whereby the die

was cast. Her will

was set.

She knew, to her I represented,

presented

no visible threat,

yet I fear for her future.

Will she live long & last?

Will the Conservatives preserve

& reserve

her life?

Lead her not to turmoil,

nor [God forbid] strife.

Preserve

not spoil,

and conserve

- her conservation likewise..  

By Annamarie [formerly "Caustic"] Causer

and Terence Eamon Causer (too)!

Memories, Nostalgia & History

History doesn't have to be in black & white

Your memory of a local character or a school photo from the last ten years can be just as interesting as wars and Victorians.
