longham walk


   yesterday we walked to longham
      kinson common n mead on the way
      saw about 500 rabbits
      they were in the fields at play

      we walked out to where the stables
      once skirted the bridle paths
      there were ponies in the meadows
      we whistled and we laughed

      they have built upon the beauty
      the woodlands and the green
      rows of mansion houses
      destroyed most of the scenes

      we stopped upon the river bank
      the stour was in full flow
      it must have been a heron
      giving us quite a show

      there were swans of regalia floating
      with fisher boys with lines
      we sure loved it in longham
      the scenery divine

      we dropped into the bridge house
      to telly savallis it once belonged
      he would drop in on his helicopter
      on Lolly's he was strong

      we walked back through old kinson
      the bridge which German's prisoners built
      the st Andrews church n grounds
      where Gulliver's tomb did tilt

      though longham was delightful
      with its lady guests fine cottage house
      its thatched roofs and its quaintness
      its still quiet as a mouse

      except for the flow of traffic
      along the ringwood road
      though its kept its unique character
      with its field mice and its toads
