Buckinghamshire and Hampshire

 


 

in the summer sun
a hoofprint
framed by sweetcorn

distant thunder
vapour trails
in the moonlight

another aeroplane
what does one expect
at Cheddington

on the hilltop
pottery shards
amongst the chalk

at an old stile
sudden sunlight
dapples the forest

early evening
grey clouds gathering
above an ancient hilltop

beneath the bank
silent trout, stained
by yesterday's storms

after the rain
the school clock
strikes eleven

through the cow parsley
his clothes littered
with petals

summer again
church bells herald
the first balloon

old man fishing
by the canal
- a heron calls

in the woods
no wildlife
only children
