1039
lovely
to watch
in a cabin at Arthur's Pass
with
a fire behind me
out
of a snug cot
to
tea
and
possibly porridge
deep
pile underfoot
and
over a well insulated ceiling
a
good strong roof
sky
through
picture windows
lovely
to watch
a
mad sway of branches
all
glistening, leaves
work
of the wind
gusts
rattling
buffeted
lovely
to watch
the
driving sleet
and
the faroff snow
and
the all but horizontal rain
and a straight bat
ReplyDeletebetween the plains
somewhere that steaming train'
left me
one of the great railway journeys
