The quagmire of North East London
After days of wintry streaming rain
Under leaden skies in uncertain light
Some hardy golfers playing their game.
Riverine paths which cleaned our boots
Followed by uncertain squelchy fields
Slippery underfoot like soupy broth
Paludal plains of muddy sticky clay.
Pressing banknotes dry in a serviette
Tea without milk in a Polish pub
Blue skies and luminous ruddy trees
A golden sunset at the end of the day.
