30 Poems in April 2015

Day twenty nine


childhood memories
herding heifers
over rickety
wooden bridges
to water meadows
beyond

fisheries
rainbow trout
in baby pools
eel traps
seen through
smoky glass

longest bridge
over the weir
single file
holding narrow
hand rails tightly
hearing waters rush

autumn colour
of woods beside
reflected on cool water
magical hues of
russet and gold
images spanning the years

walks as a child
through fields and
primrose scattered wood
over bridges of dreams
counting heifers
placidly chewing their cud
