The Last Post
“The Last Post” by Rob Holt A German Broom in Bugloss fields - A Burning Bush with a red sea of salad. As false winds Foxtail, Crowfoot wallows in mud And Lords and Ladies cross in zig-zag trenches. Jack-by-the-Hedge peeps out at the Black Horehound, While Cats Ears listen for Creeping Gromwell. A Bugle announces that Greater Burdock has won the Kingcup. Scentless Gypsy Weed weaves through the Soldiers-and-Sailors To the Heather-clad mountain of Jack-in-the-Pulpit. Hearts Ease as dead souls whisper “Forget-Me-Not.”
