Deva

By a little Roman fortress
on the banks of River Dee
and a Roman port called ‘Deva’
that is steeped in history.

This is the place I’ve settled
where England touches Wales.
This is the place my poet’s pen
will spread out all it’s tales.

So come share my adventures
each one penned out in rhyme,
I’m sure you’ll find no better way
to waste your idle time!

Ivor G Davies

The moment created this second, is a  moment that's going to last.
It lives the full spectrum of time, the future, the present and past.

I adore this poem! It has that natural flow that poems of rigid structure often lack.  The good humor turns an impersonal poet-reader relationship into a much warmer relationship between friends. Absolutly incredible
