spring tart

spring tart ( by final vernal warning )



come hither

let's dither

as serpents

they slither


with vigour

we'll whisper

as archers

they quiver


with glitter

& mirrors

as fools run

with scissors ( ! )


let's blither

by rivers

til autumn

leaves wither

...

modern folk ( a pondering )




spring is old

yet spring is new

puzzling

but this is true

wander then

admire a view

praise the strange

then grab a pew



as we do

as sayings go

observe birds

the songs they know

by anon

from loads ago

we are trad

we're modern folk

honesty is probably

honesty is probably (  s o m e   p s e u d o – p o e t r y  )



honesty is probably

possibly a prophecy

bonhomie & broccoli

oddities & odysseys


frostily on forestry

gossipy on prodigies

wantonly plus wobbly

solidly oh solemnly


wallabies in hostelries

monstrously a novelty

potbellied astrology

commonly anomalies


bottoms up thee botany

crotchety equality

cobwebby these wannabes

- seeking the truth -

poetry from those roams along old roman roads

poetry from those roams along old roman roads ( some  v e r s e )



poetry from those roams

along old roman roads

yes the seasons they change

life it bears heavy loads

like a lorry or van

or a big fuck-off truck

have a wander on them

if you're down-bogged or stuck


so to speak in the mind

many wonders to find

as they campaigned they built

back in y'old brythonned times

ropy verse will emerge

trust me - i've channelled loads

as one plods through the odd

along old roman roads
