This thought came to me standing in the banks of the river Ehen near a gentle swirling pool where litter gathered as if resting on the journey down river. Standing under the tree I watched a leaf flutter down. It danced on the unseen air and The breeze flicked it as gently aside As the Squeezy bottle I saw on the tide. The leaf floated to its verdant bed And lay motionless Among - Tin cans Plastic bottles Bottle tops Rubber dolls (headless)- And began its return to the earth To feed its mother And another And another 2010 |

Golden girls and boys all must as old tin cans, return to rust. Apologies to The Bard Nice work. ps How dare somebody do that to a Cumbrian river. It's like pi**ing in a font! |

'Unto rust they shall return' may be an appropriate sentiment. A thought... So often today local urinals close at 5-30 so sometimes pi**ing in a font is the only option open to the man or woman about town. Cumbrian rivers remain unconcerned!! |
