Down through the ages
others before us
would have seen mountains
all orange and green
stone cottages smothered in ivy
no Internet
no Netflix no tv
what would they have seen
The sky the same colour
The air a bit cleaner
Waterfalls raindrops
And no by pass
just railways
no jets in the sky
and a hamlet
of
extraordinary beauty
And of exceptional class.
