"Tootle tootle tootle tee"
Can it be
Pride & fame must shadows be
Come and see
Every season own her own
Bird & bee
Sing creations music on
Natures glee
Is in every mood & tone
Eternity

From Helpston in rural Northamptonshire, John Clare was born in 1793. He is now regarded as the most important poet of the natural world from Britain. He wrote many poems, prose and letters about love, sex, corruption and politics, environmental and social change, poverty and folk life. Even in his 'madness', his talents were not diminished. Ronald Blythe, past President of the Clare Society, saw Clare as "... England's most articulate village voice". Clare died, aged 71, in 1864.
