So i tried to write another poem about the countryside

About the U shaped valleys the meandering rivers the mountains and the glens

Only then I realised I had already driven around God's country towing a mini combine harvester,

From Pembroke to Caernarvon to where the Shepherd lost his sheep from Aberystwyth to Trawscoed

To the salmon river cascading down the waterfall to the place in the Pine Forest where we went skinny 

dipping in the clear cold water of the mountain stream.

If we had not seen the mushroom cloud in 1952 how did we know the UK was the third power to have a bomb

I have a picture in an album of Queen Elizabeth 2 Queen Mary and the Queen mum all dressed in black lace that could have come from Nottingham.
