Woodlawn

                 Where’s Holly?

Remain inside

Woolfox

No! It's not spring

              full salt barn

roadside

Useless depot

pre-dawn birdsong

Blue bucket of Gold

         refrain

the sound of

        a windswept shore

inland the A1 winds its way

North

          Hit it!

The Watford Gap

Camouflage undergrowth

at least the sun is shining

Nic is concerned

look for closeness of trains

as they speed  north / south

Perspective alters

            depending on seating

Free Parking for 2 hours

Against the blue birch

phone mast

            silver straight

   gaps in hedge

The ravens  circle

        shadow reflected

In summer

                    place to picnic

In spring

                make phone calls

on the

     way south
