Emsworthy

'Marsh green bog
old man with camera searching for shots, 
old man and son striding down moor
distanced observed

nods of hello,
Douglas Nosworthy 
repaired these old stone walls, 
walls I've studied, sketched, loved,
another connection in my walks down these paths,
and hailstorm is forgotten
now I'm warmed and comforted again'
