THE BLUEBELL WALK, WOOTTON WAWEN... (My poem about a walk in May 2010, Wootton Wawen, Warwickshire...)

 The Bluebell Walk, Wootton Wawen…



Lower lip in awe, dropped

At the depth of sumptuous blue to mauve.

An outrageous ridge,

A thickness of incongruous collage,

A river of flowers

Flooding the spaces between saplings.

A glorious springtime treasure trove.


Strained lids on eyes, dropped

At the thought of scrumptious white to cream.

A winter’s wedge,

A deftness of crystallised snow,

A lava of silence

Filling the spaces around the saplings.

A grim Yuletide’s fanciful dream…



Pete Ray…




 The layer of bluebells stretched and stretched. 





It was like winter snow but infused with violet….





It was May, 2010, Wootton Wawen, Warwickshire…
