You could do a poem about the snails
And meant the painted trails
Around the town
My mind ran down

And pattern
Snail blanks
And someone ranks
Their shell design
Good, bad, just fine!

Lovers
There were those moments
pressed
against a Cornish rock

with the shush of the rippling waves
nearby in the night
lying
in a Sussex garden
with the hot sun
dappling our backs
parked
on a Ditchling hill
with town lights
spread below

And the mashed potato dish

Had a seasoned, peppery waft
And the choice of sauces:

It must have been a whole side of cod
I remember my grandfather like a god
Slowly stood to serve the fish
Separating the flakes
