Unnoticed
The Sun shines through trees;
Brings life to the Woodland floor
Bluebells and fairies.
This One too – A Bristol son.
He’s Archibald Leach;
from Horfield to Hollywood.
The late Cary Grant
Another of Bristol’s sons
My given name is
Edward Teach, high sea sailor;
but to you, Blackbeard!
Avon Vale School
Before I could read,
I attended Avon vale School.
]It’s not there any more!
Walkabout – Bristol No.2
It used to be that
Nails outside the Corn Exchange
Is where debts were paid
Walkabout -Bristol Afoot No.1
walking up Park Street,
you pass St George’s tower.
Its bell rings e flat.
Where did my Neighbours Go?
Spring came slow and sure
my neighbours went from my view
Fall caused their return.
Bristol Afoot No.4
Walk about Welsh back
Imagine sailing ships docked
readied for high seas
An Old Dead Tree
There is a dead tree
still standing in my garden.
Woodpeckers find grubs.
