Ancient buildings recall peoples' lives of old
Cattle sheds made from monumental stone
Owl and pussycat gates found on a shady path.
Brick kilns from time immemorial fired clay
In some forgotten forest which we passed
The modern works nearby with piles of bricks
Where people toil the whole week through.
We wished we had an almanac to explain
The curious places marked out on maps
The memorial plaques on gates recalling
The long passed life of some lost relative
Or the golden jubilee of an unknown pair
In the green hills among the grazing sheep.
