Looking Back





See the Maltings casting tiles,
straggles of hedge, land patches
raddled with weed.
Rubble rucks where the tracks were,
tin huts confuse their allotment.
All’s grown and gone.

See the cut of green to the hills
where elms prop the leaded sky,
squat as the wood butt
by my neighbour’s workaday wall.
