Lawrence Hall
Dispatches for the Colonial Office
The Seven Seeing-Stones
Good Tolkien writes of spring far better than we
With layered allusions to Celtic and Nordic myths
His Fairy Folk sing clearly in rainbow rhymes
Among the crocuses abloom ‘round ancient trees
My crocuses bloom ‘round a shaggy lawn
With garden furniture in need of paint
And morning coffee in a Tupperware cup
To serve as a greeting to the rising sun
Friend Tolkien writes of spring for you and me
And through his Seven Seeing-Stones – we see!
