Vegetable companions

Posted on May 29, 2026 by Rex Tyler

The arrogance of ignorant man
Gardeners of sort
Who just deem to imagine
How grow things needs thought
Groups of various edibles
Some operating well
With companion planting
Not something people sell

Asparagus loves Parsley
And basil seems to be
Helpful but for certain
Onions dreadfully
And of course potatoes
Are aliens in fact
Planted with asparagus
Detrimentally react

like most human beings
Some we don’t get along
It’s the same of course
Amongst the flowers
Difference belong
Growing them together
Detrimentally
Can punish us for our arrogance
Interestingly

Take Beans
That some call pulses
Apparently love Beets
Borage, carrots cauliflower
And cabbage somehow greets
Cucumbers and tomatoes
But never should one grow
Chives fennel of garlic
Now we are in the know

Rue and sage are no no’s
With cucumbers it seems.
Parsnips and potatoes
For celery bad dreams
All round it seems
Imagine it
Broad beans hate fennel so
Dill Rosemary and radish
Carrots will for close
On having them around about
Just shows you other plants
Have the power to upset
And it’s not all down to chance

Awelfa’s garden

Posted on May 28, 2026 by Rex Tyler

It comes on all levels
Alpine inclines
Fruit trees and ferns
So many signs
Of deep thoughts
And caring
Selections we see
Wild edibles bordering
Attract the Bee

No immaculate borders
Nor flowers in straight rows
All sorts of orders
Really that pose
Magical colours
Ancient type leaves
Natures my gardener
Along with tall trees

A wood at the back
Hazels we see
Holly and hawthorn
Give shade naturally
Dry stone steps
Boldly set perfectly
Move to high levels
And look beautifully

Pebbles and slate pieces
Form a bold path
Attracting the sun
Whose rays do bath
The higher levels
In sunshine and soul
With bunches of flowers
Kind of out of control

A sloworm or two
Newts in our tank
Butterflies hawk moths
Cash in the bank
All sorts of birds
Who share their song
Who drink from our gutters
Where they do belong

In the swim

Posted on May 28, 2026 by Rex Tyler

Starving them of oxygen
Making them appear
To be dragged out of the ocean
By great netting of fear
Icing them and watching them
Scream for all their worth
Soaking them in blocks of ice
Removing them from their earth
Into suffocation mode
Air bladders to the fore
Fishing isn’t wishing
No not anymore

Twm a new born

Posted on May 28, 2026 by Rex Tyler

A Bonnie baby comes into
Our wonderful world
Both good and true
To Laura and Dewi
A child is born
To accompany Hari
This May Day morn

No happier family
Dolgellau’s gift
Where mountains smoulder
And songbirds lift
The psyche daily
Under a blue sky
A brand new neighbour
Bye and bye

A celebration
Of all things well
Such jubilation
Again has fell
On this community
wonderment
Their prodigy
Was heaven sent

The miracle of life and soul
Felicitation of the role
Euphoria heartfelt of course
Count one’s blessings
A wondrous source

Seventh heaven
And, cloud nine
Laura and Dewi
Feel divine
An understanding
And rapport
And A happy family
For evermore

The Nature track footpath close to Awelfa

Posted on May 27, 2026 by Rex Tyler

The bushes just outside my house
A conglommerate of souls
The green encompassing offering
Therein housing trolls
All undulating in the breeze
Where all manner of song birds hide
Staring out to the mountains
On the Western side

Rocking green stems towering
In glorious gusts of spray
Where buttercups of golden lustre
At their roots display
They decorate the constant trail
That meandering
it be
Amongst a wealth of edibles
That i gather earnestly

Hear the Blackbirds 🐦‍⬛
chorus
A Chaffinch well on song
The Dunnock and the Robin
Shared their magic song
Of Snowdonias winged heraldics
All birds of acclaim
Whose whistling crescendos
Are coaxing us by name

Bind Weed

Posted on May 27, 2026 by Rex Tyler

What is an encumbent species
A structured sprawling mass
Dangling so forcefully
Exceedingly its crass
To hunker under apple trees
Among the ferny dark
Tapestries of tippet
Suspended makes it mark
Morning Glory growing
Trumpet flowers can grow
white and Pink and Violet
Invasive wild proclaim
A genuine destroyer
The never takes the blame

Hawk Moths reside intently
They just love the flower
Teased out by the nectar
A kind of glorious shower
Other insects love it
And Dewi, yesterday
Pulled armful’s of its stalky power
Real and significantly
Tenacious by cohesion
Intangible it be
Sinewy and woody
So stubborn seemingly

Every rooted speciment
It needs pulling free
It truly holds a mounting sprout
A permanence that be
Forever draining the lifeblood
From other species who
Suffer being molested
Because that is what they do.

Slow Worms

Posted on May 27, 2026 by Rex Tyler

Fraternisation such intimacy
Coming to terms
With slow worms who be
In fact legless lizards
Eye lids and all
Ear holes for hearing
Affabilities call
No eggs about them
Live young they birth
Social activities
That is their worth
Dry stone wall huggers
Gregarious souls
Amazing fangs
Eating slugs snails
Controls
With their outgoing habits
Making overtures they
Preferably leave them
Alone
And they play
In the forest clutter
Most of the day
Mating in Spring
In what is an array
Of spectacular love feats
Bonds of friendship in play.

Purslane

Posted on May 25, 2026 by Rex Tyler

It grows in cracks out of pavements
An edible, famed for its style
Green succulent leaves
Packed with omega 3 fatty acids
And more than that, it achieves
What is A super food status
Ruled by the moon
And pigs they
And other farmed creatures
It makes them feel good
A E and yes Magnesium too
And just growing freely
And seemingly could

Balance digestion
An antioxidant too
Phosphorus and Manganese
All of this true
A self seeding annual
With sweet yellow flowers
It loves the rain
Giving it special powers

Tis said anti cancer
Growing for free
Goes well in pots
There is no mystery
It’s packed with minerals
Drunk as a tea
Or eaten in salads
As a constancy

In a tea aids hydration
Vitamin c vitamin E
A great all rounder
To enjoy and to be

Happy with these wild plants

Rhododendrons

Posted on May 25, 2026 by Rex Tyler

An invasive floral destroyer
Of deliberate power and acclaim
It’s inveterate impetuosity
Fearless it’s spirited fame
Loves a wet Spring on its budlets
With acidic earth at its feet
It be a formidable growing machine
In woodlands it’s hardly discreet

Mammals are fearful of living
Within its glossy leaves for it be
Creating a real toxic hell fest
Rhododendrons grow miraculously
It’s a bold evergreen a non native
It’s watery instinct to spa
Bees are attracted
Though with toxins impacted
It’s a philistine set up to scar

Floral magnificence and really how
It spreads through wild forests unchecked
A bull in a China shop floral
Despairingly and circumspect
Such a belligerence held in its core
A wildness like nothing cherished before
And the innocent gardener with youthful desire
May be taken in by the thrill of its fire.

A bounteous floral
An attraction of soul
A bright colouration
Providing control
Of one’s senses, impactful
A peacock of sorts
A Brazen appeasement
That plays with one’s thoughts.

The magical ale hoof or Ground Ivy

Posted on May 22, 2026 by Rex Tyler

Nepeta Glechoma ground Ivy
A cure all
From years long before
Grows in large patches
With kidney shaped leaves
Bright violet flowers
Don’t ignore

Prolific abundance
Square stems like Mint
Aromatic it has a fine oil
Low growing
Bee’s love it
Sharing grass areas
In salads with herb salts
It provides to the soil

A magical meaningful
A divination
It’s leaves on the base
Of a candle of yellow
And burned on a Tuesday
On an evening that’s mellow
To discover
Whose working bad magic against you
An edible
In soups and salads
Was used long ago for those
Suffering tinnitus that’s what I have read
And still to this day
It grows

Here there and everywhere

Jetster having treatment today

Posted on May 22, 2026 by Rex Tyler

Jetster is a fave of mine
Who lives with Claudie, She
Rescued him and loves him
And, he once told me
He just loves to live with her
To follow her around
To sit with her
To lay with her
He was so glad he found

Her coming to the car park
On seeing her, you see
He walked every day from the canal
Really just to be
Near her, I know someone else
Who did this years before
He did it on a Sunday
Clearly both were sure

How lovely it was walking
The towpath to the place
Where the wait rose car park was
Where he saw her face
Her dragon car
A mythic beast
That always seemed to be
Visiting the magic there
And often there he‘d see

Her gothic clothes were present
In turn with nature’s sound
A wild witch of the ancient woods
Just to be around
Her, those whistling besoms
Her herbal nosegays she
Was worth all of the walking
Winter through summer, We
That’s Jetster and the other guy
Two legs who we know
Mutually we often chat
And affection it did grow

Today I am off to dr
A blood test needed, I
Have been somewhat I’ll at ease
Which you see is why
She is looking after me
I am travelling now
To see the dr in her car
Nervous yes, but not dour
Not sad, for I know she loves me
She cares so much, I know
These thoughts come from Jetster
Deep down and they grow

Sitting in the carry basket
In the Kia car
She keeps chatting to me
And I know you are
Somewhere in Snowdonia
Where I saw the snow
Soon I shall see the dr
I miss you too you know

I am looking after Claudie
And she is with me

Jetster

Baby pigs cry too you know

Posted on May 22, 2026 by Rex Tyler

Imagine a baby stuck in a crate
A fallowing prison
This is the fate
Of piglets around the world
Suffering so
Caught in the bars
People don’t want to know
Suffering infants
Suffering crying
Pork ribs and sausages
So many dying 🐖

Dairy cow blues

Giving our babes life

Eating the buns
Refusing to hear us

And to state
Anything less
Is to really lie

Watching them die
Innocent angels
Heavenly souls
Crying in misery for

The Lodestone

Posted on May 16, 2026 by Rex Tyler

Lodestone has that pull
You feel it
Visiting the
shop
All those lovely crystals
It’s wonderful to stop
And believe in the excitement
It’s so magical to be
In Bourton on the Water
In the Lodestone
And to see
All the myriad marvels
To be part of it all
The generous persuasion
That truly does enthral
The Wind-rush and it’s bridges
Really at its height
Feeling all that energy
From what is magnetite.

Glyphosate. Ban this shit!

Posted on May 13, 2026 by Rex Tyler

Good on you
We have to try
And stop using it
And to rely
On farmers really
To honestly
Stop using such horrors
It seems to me
A vile solution
A sickening scent
A diabolic circumvent

Crippling aura
Chemically
Carcinogenic
Obviously

Electric cars

Posted on May 10, 2026 by Rex Tyler

According to Starmer
And The great and the good
Electric cars
Do what they should
As clean as can be
That’s what they feel
What about the Congo
Where mining is real
Children in bore holes
Working all day
Looking for cobalt
The cruelest of way
So Many collapses
Children have died
What’s clean about death
So much is denied

The poorest of the poor
Indulged in this work
Terribly dangerous
In the smut and the murk
The Congolese children
Suffering so
It’s filthy energy
That much we know

Restore Britain

Posted on May 9, 2026 by Rex Tyler

Great Yarmouth FIRST
Wins all of the seats
A clean sweep
So to say
Restore Britain and
Rupert Lowe
Have gone and won
the day
Each of them were business men
Thats really magically
A truly special moment
Great joy admittedly
The candidates were joyous
Their hard work they all could see
As for two tier Starmer delusional
He be
With Migrants being promised
They’d be returned
Permanently
Back to wherever they came from
No freebies anymore
Every illegal migrant
They could all fuck off
For sure.

From Awelfa

Posted on May 9, 2026 by Rex Tyler

Magical beings
That’s trees in my book
Forests and groves
Those of us look
Closer and closer
Imagining they
Have spirits and true souls
Which we can’t take away
They exists with good magic
survive with folk lore
Oxygen makers
And composts for sure
Fruit for the birds
For the insects and bees
Spiritual knowledge
And heartwood to please.

The state of the average Dairy Cow Today

Posted on May 8, 2026 by Rex Tyler

The pictures tells you everything
Born a perfect soul
But farmed there in a dairy
Under their control
Raped subject to kidnap
Emotions running high
Lamentably discouraging
No word of a lie

Murdering Rays

Posted on May 8, 2026 by Rex Tyler

The contempt of life
Beautiful Rays
The ocean made them
Worthy of praise
Thrown in a heap in the back
Of some van
To suffocate painfully
So that some man
Can flog them to others
What the hell for ?

Cregennan Lakes

Posted on May 8, 2026 by Rex Tyler

The Landscape
Here, around these parts
Are breathtakingly fine
Both Cregennan Lakes
For all our sakes
Are scenically divine

Unbelievable Mountain vistas
Wondrous lakes of myriad blues
Brown trout Blue and Rainbow Trout
And absolutely inspiring views

The estuary of Mawddach
The Arthrog Valley Bog
Cadair Idris stands aloft
Plants and flowers forever soft
A picnic here a shortish walk
Where sheep do baa and couples talk

Wild flowers wave, life to the full
This wonderful fusion, just feel that pull
On all our senses one has to say
Five miles from Home
On a summers day

Where Awelfa’s real tranquility
Is A flowery hilltop certainly
Suggests the need
Only five miles
Away from home
And some avid smiles

For Eryi stretches
Near and far
Narrow lanes
Of woodland, star
Dolgellau’s Stoney facing places
And of course so many faces
Of happiness and being where
So much beauty that all can share.

Cregennan Lakes

Posted on May 7, 2026 by Rex Tyler

£15 per day to fish
The Cregennan Lakes
Of blue
Just beneath the mountains
The most amazing view
The sheep and lambs they ponder
On ridges low and high
Cader Idris and other mountains
Richly deck the sky

A gated road meanders
Behind picturesque it be
These natural ice age renderings
Misty moments naturally
Eryri is supremely peaceful
Lakes and mountains
A bright sky
So much to take in gloriously
And a reason why

Quite near to Dolgellau
Twenty minutes we
See the illustrious estuary
It’s where the beauteous be
Forests and the true greenery
Mountains all about
Colours of mean pastel
Leave us in no doubt

Hari on his red bike
Up and down the dales
Over the lumpy grassy hillocks
Following various trails
A winding road
Descends into Arthog a hamlet small
Everywhere one looks along the roads
A dry stone wall

Beating working animals

Posted on May 5, 2026 by Rex Tyler

A creature of habit
A hard working soul
A sensitive being
A man out of control
Ignorant idiot
Beating a donkey
That’s giving its all
Every hour of each day
Not fed little water
Expected to slave
With heavy cargo
For the nastiest knave

Who

Posted on May 4, 2026 by Rex Tyler

Who is who
Dullards do
An association that be true
They Get their grips into children’s brains
For that is where they are at, with pains
Consuming gentle innocence
With their lefty sickening howls
Telling them to touch themselves
As the darkness fouls
The mind with evil banter
This group of the darkly vile
The paedophilic monsters arise
And should be on trial

Children walk a tightrope
Swinging in their lair
The WHO association
Nothing there is fair
Mindless darkly monsters
Their evil thoughts they share
A long time irreverence
If they only were aware

Essential oil from a sunshine herb

Posted on May 4, 2026 by Rex Tyler

Eternal love my goodness
We all want that don’t we
A wild plant of the hillsides
Where it grows positively
Helichrysum italicum
A curried sweet bouquet
We ought to buy a bottle
Or grow some right away.

Agriculture is murder
It’s real cruelty
To animals friends

Pigs the end game

Donkey

Seemingly tis said a beast of burden
Smaller than a horse an Ass maybe
A domesticated equine
From Africa
Intelligent and emotional
A sign

Deeply loyal respected
Noble hearted
A gentle nature
Resilient through and through
Our highly developed sense of smell
Is wonderful
Locating food and water
Yes they do

Protectors of other animals
Around them
Very expressive faces to be sure
Long ears in which they
regulate
Their temperature
A developed personality
You know them is to adore

Follys Farm and forever home
Potten End

Rapists

Raping girls until they bleed
And little boys as well

Born it seems in hell
What they need is being beaten
With red hot pokers they
Need to feel the undoubted strength
Of red hot metal
All the way to their soul
