requiem


REQUIEM

So sad as I get older ,

To see so much gone ,

What remains going fast ,

When I were but a nipper ,

From sea to country I could go ,

On foot or bicycle ,

Fields , ploughed and planted ,

Potatoes , wheat , peas , sweet corn ,

Cabbage , name it and grew in those fields ,

Now those fields under tarmac , concrete ,

Lay now entombed ,

Only the sea remains
