Huge elm with rifted trunk all notched & scarred
Like to a warrior's destiny I love
To stretch me often on thy shadowed sward
Or on thy buttressed roots to sit & lean
In careless attitude & there reflect
On times & deeds & darings that have been
Old castaways now swallowed in neglect
While thou art towering in thy strength of heart
Stirring the soul to vain imaginings
In which lifes sordid being hath no part
Follow me for daily #JohnClare postings.
