An old finger-post "Rose Cottage Farm" One Mile!
By an overgrown broken down wooden stile.
I stopped to ponder; to wonder a while!
Could this be the start of a country mile?
Over the stile lay a long forgotten track,
In the distance stood an old haystack.
Walking down the dusty old track!
Inwardly thinking, should I turn back?

Stevie, you and me,
On that golden day,
Was it ’68?
The decade’s last few days,
The whole wild world was crazed,
But where we were was peace,
For you and me at least.
We walked and talked
For many hours,
......
Back on the countryside,
Just for a day,
Seeing far,
Real darkness,
without street lights,
blurring the stars away.
Less people,
more animals,
feeling the wind,
grass underneath my shoes,
