Savvy Poem – The Conwy Worm

 

 

 

Drawbridge up –

forever closed,

we hear the tune,

and follow.

 

No choice,

but to burrow

under.

 

No alternative,

but to root ourselves in for the long haul.

 

I feel the sharpness of the spade

as it chops this worm in two

regurgitating us forward into

the light, as we bundle-up and

drop

right

into

the

dark

depths

of

Conwy.

Edward’s 24th Great Grandson receives his specs!

Freelance writer and descendant of the cave dweller and outlaw, Humphrey Kynaston. Banished from Shropshire for my eccentricity, I have made my home in Suffolk. I write poetry, short stories, travel journals, comedy gig reviews and non-fiction articles. My wish is to write my way back into the heart of my birth land. All writing commissions (and free holidays in Shropshire!) considered.
