Honey Hour

Of late afternoon, on a West Country wall.

Of a west country wall.

The warm honey face of a west country town, coursed and weathered softly.

Of ashlar; of the dressed face.

Coursed ashlar; weathers softly.

From the same part

Of autumn field, and the low October light.

Of quiet façades, and the patience of chapter houses.

Of middle England, and the light in a market square.
