The sun tried to peek at us through clouds
As we had a hit or miss behind a pile of logs
And walked through woods still bare of leaves
In Spring with new crops in the fields.

Objects guessed afar on the horizon
Water tower, windmill, a stately home
People drinking their lunchtime pints 
Laughing and talking on a village green.

An old church hidden in the woodland sun
Fast post prandial walking accross the fields 
Remains of an abbey reflected in a pond
A twist in the tail and the last train home.
