Beneath bronzed bracken fronds are formed
tracks left by frenzied creatures as
the rising sun proclaims the morn
the time for foraging now is passed
beneath drooping eyelids, bellies full
warm, grass-lined burrows gently call
for now their long night’s work is done
they again await the setting sun

The glow worm is a quite
small bug that goes out at night
he has a luminous bum
to invite females to come
and check out the eerie green light.

the red sun goes down
a line of geese in the sky

Out in the woods I saw today
guaranteed to lighten my heart
was a sight of natural art
for on the grass I spied a jay
although quite common so they say
as on the grass he alighted
true to say I was delighted
silver blue wingtips shining bright
and chessboard flanks of black and white
with fawn and purple neck and breast
his long beak probing on it’s quest
truly a magnificent sight

Whether in a sunlit forest clearing
or hidden deep within the dank, moist shade
he will be found forever preening
a gaudy, strutting Indian brave,
proudly standing with his tail displayed,
a hundred eyes are always watching
throughout earth’s history was there ever
found in nature a sight quite matching
the splendour of each jewelled feather
unlidded eyes that will not ever
close thus allowing him sleep or rest
all the while displaying pavonine breast
the faithful guardian of the forest

Sea and sky entwined
like lovers, viewed from afar
our one blue planet

I find when talking to country folk
their favourite tree is the mighty oak
so just last week whilst driving my truck
I stopped near this one to have a look
and you can imagine my surprise
I’m sure I saw a pair of eyes
so I jumped back in to tell my mate Stan
He said, don’t worry, tiz just the Green Man
he won’t hurt you if you leave him alone
but I think we’d best start heading for home.
In the dark, cold night
we witness the Northern lights
with eyes of a child

Whilst on a trip down to the Weald
I went for a walk through the fields
The air smelt fresh, I soon saw why
On the hill was a huge pig sty
I have no qualms about pig-shit
Just glad I didn’t walk through it
Then a story came to my mind
The tale of the Gadarene swine
And the farmers in this region
Wouldn’t like it if I were Legion
