I nearly didn’t go outside today
But Friday four o’clock
Enough ‘s enough
Out for a walk
Over to the railway
Watched empty ‘Covid’ carriages go by
Coming in
Met my neighbour John
Carrying a ladder
As he does
Music aficionado
Reading buff
A book he recommends
By Rodney Bews
Turning in my road
I saw a lassie
Stunning is the word that I would use
Black jeans red top
Long black hair
Smiling face
O I was amused
See what happens
Just outside your door!
Trains to watch and books to read
Conversation too
A lovely lassie
Waltzing by
Time to have a brew
