Just Near Here Recited

JUST NEAR HERE
Follow the track ,with the scenic view
through  beechchwood, common heath
with grassy scrub and clumps of gorse,
in yellow garb;Amble shaded lanes
to wayside pubs .‘Cross meadow gates 
and stile ,contemplate ,or, sit awhile
as daisy,buttercup,and  cowslip yellow
mix as one in fellowship.Reach a wood
with its carpet blue, listen to a trickling
stream,where dogrose in a briared sprawl,
flower and prickle, meander tall , shading
mallow where tasselled teasels touching
the trees greened with rain.Scent 
honeysuckle waxing in summer light, 
a heady fragrance to fill the night.
