requiem
To see so much gone ,
What remains going fast ,
When I were but a nipper ,
From sea to country I could go ,
On foot or bicycle ,
Fields , ploughed and planted ,
Potatoes , wheat , peas , sweet corn ,
Cabbage , name it and grew in those fields ,
Now those fields under tarmac , concrete ,
Lay now entombed ,
Only the sea remains

REQUIEM
So sad as I get older ,To see so much gone ,
What remains going fast ,
When I were but a nipper ,
From sea to country I could go ,
On foot or bicycle ,
Fields , ploughed and planted ,
Potatoes , wheat , peas , sweet corn ,
Cabbage , name it and grew in those fields ,
Now those fields under tarmac , concrete ,
Lay now entombed ,
Only the sea remains
The Dyslexic Poet
