Walk and Talk

WALK & TALK AUGUST 2024

We needn’t have worried about the weather

We needn’t have worried about the heather

We needn’t have worried about the pond

Or finding the path that went beyond.

We needn’t have thought no-one would attend

Or that a refusal might offend.

We needn’t have worried about where to eat

Or if we’d be able to get a seat.

 

The weather was fine, though often notorious

The heather was stunning, deep purple and glorious.

Lilies, ponies, and cattle were all in store

Five walkers today (which is more than before).

To the tearoom for leisurely coffees after

Shared understandings, stories, and laughter.

Next month we will move to our new time: Monday

So that we don’t clash with the Silver Swans ballet.

thank you Jacqueline for, not only spending time, along with Vivienne, arranging BEWI walks but also for your undoubted talent as a poet.
