ON
OFFA'S DYKE
I
have walked along this ancient way so many, many times and yet
Today
seems somehow different, all parameters have changed,
I see The wild Welsh hills are draped in silent, crawling mist that
comes
To
fold me in its cold, white arms and carry me through time.
And
as it clears, are those King Offa's men who call to me
From that stockade where, looking westward, vigilant and strong,
They
brace themselves against attack - but then are gone
Into
the mist? And
I am back where I belong -
That
boring, clicking, boxes ticking, unromantic world where I came from!
