Meandering
a slick of brown
in a sea of green
the steelwork spanning
and dividing.
Faint hearted now
departed
the tokens all collected
best kept but not
remembered.
Those who choose
stay
endure the gifts of nature
its bounty there
for all to see
and sheltered still
the cautious horses.
Gathered later a likely crowd
spreading cheer and mirth
and chips around.
Moments now of
moments then.
We pass this way
hastily
our journeys crazed
with shells acquired
the soul endures
and remains.
