Limestone crags and pavements with wild flowers

Limestone crags and pavements with wild flowers
My happiness was like their shape and form
West coast sun and West Wind Easter showers

Rambling on past broken Norman towers
Rams arrested us by curly horns
Limestone crags and pavements with wild flowers

Seems now I  have wasted many hours
In libraries,in eagerness to learn
No West coast sun nor West Wind fragrant showers

Ingleborough, Dent , oh,down rain pours
Non-human universe, its love so stern
Limestone crags their pavements with wild flowers

Here there dwells a love Northern and pure
To which I’d give my eye teeth to return
West coast sun and West Wind softest showers

As children in our play we  ignorant learn
Always sensing which  way we  may turn
On limestone crags and pavements with wild flowers
In West coast sun and  loving Irish showers
