lundego walks

SultryRose's Signatures

i took a trip to lundego
were gypsies camped in rain and snow
on egdon heath by wareham moors
where heather stretched in gypsy Roma lore

the Carey walks with rhodey dens
with trees so tall and song of wrens
where streams were rich in woodlands lore
there as a boy i saw it all

the Sanford dells and stoborough green
where folks all danced on Halloween
the roadside vardos stranded there
with gypsy rose and heather fair

the moreton tracks and worgret heath
where as kids we learned to cut our teeth
the potato field of spiller jack
with sacks of spuds upon our backs

where fishes jumped and eels did slide
through rivers rich and mills that roared
with waters rich and wheat not spoiled
where granary walls were hard and mean
with views and walks to redcliffes beauty scenes

the corn exchange beneath the clock
far from the brambles and stingers docks
where urchin children once there played
upon the heaths of yesterdays
