durzet


at the foot of the maidens castle
      not far from Dorchester town
      the teacher wrote his poetry
      and called it durzet down
      on the road to wareham town

      the market stalls were busy
      the town hall clock did chime
      and hardy wrote of Tess
      by wool on the downs
      on the road to bere
      clouds hill lodge was nigh
      where Lawrence rode his triumphs
      and tis moreton where he lies

      the durzet heather is scented
      with nectar of the bee
      whilst the dolphins ride the waves at Poole
      far out to the sea

      Augustus drew the gypsies and painted heather view
      but i was just a child then
      and kinson was the parish capital of Poole
