messing about by the river by by not on

…

messing about by the river

watching swans just swan along

eiders & the odd kingfisher

( humming bits of other's songs )



in the sunlight ripples glisten

dazzling my half-arsed eye

calm currents they whisper - listen

( lobbed-in beer cans bob on by )



should i find an empty bottle?

write a note to float inside?

with a quote from aristotle

( a gift for whomever finds )



' hello you, i'm by the river

watching swans just swan along

eiders & the odd kingfisher

( a blue swish

& then it's gone ) '
