Forest Stone Cottage


Forest Stone Cottage

The warm brown stones encourage kinship
As ivy clambers insistent and silent
Over mossy iron gutters,
Under split grey slates;
They never knew neglect 'til Old John died,
Leaving his Last Will and Argument:
Any friend welcome, but nature came first...
The substance returns to its land.

  1. what a good read Fil ...
    makes you think...
    as in ashes to ashes...
    nature reclaims its land and anything left there too!
