The Viewpoint

(Leaf 82) – Looking Back

 



This poem is linked to Leaf 10, but separated by several decades and set in an entirely different season.

 

 

THE VIEWPOINT, HARROW-ON-THE-HILL

 

Climbing the green sward hill,

beneath wind-rushed leaves

of tall trees, reaching up around

the Church spire – just to look out,

once again, over a place called “home.”
