beechwoods downland
common heath
chalky soil
inches beneath
trees
jostling tall
leaf,yellow-brown
in Autumn fall
fallow deer feed
at dawn and dusk
treading flat
the beechnut husk
roedeer muntjac proliferate
where Nature reverts
& liberates
colours tint our view
daylight
so soon out of sight
waves goodbye
all creatures exhale
a sigh

Beechwoods,downland and common heath,
Chalky soil inches beneath;
Trees,jostling tall,
Leaf,yellow-brown in Autumn,fall;
Fallow deer feed at dawn and dusk,
Treading flat the beechnut husk;
Open heath,sandy soiled,
Whence commoners once toiled;
Roedeer,muntjac proliferate
As Nature reverts and liberates;
Winding brooks and narrow streams,
In mingled,muddled childhood dreams.
