Poetry The Somme Estuary by Prasada Caroline Brazier |
|
White cows, mud-gaitered Grazing creek crossed salt marshes Need not perfection Sky and poplars don't expect Keeping up appearances. Flats expand far out Across the bay of beige sand Watery streams wander A dust of gulls along the shore Lone figures, man and dog, walk. Out to the distance Van Gogh hay wheels in a field Morning haze lifting The chip man cuts potatoes In the press behind his van P.C.J. Brazier |
