'Untitled'

Lying south of sweet Northumber,
Lands of Westmor, Rut and Cumber,
Nottingham for forest walks,
Durham, Derby, Lancs and Yorks,
Leicester, Warwick, Wilts ahead,
Fords of Here, Staff and Bed,
Shires of Lincoln, Shrop and Ches,
Sexes - Middle, Sus and Es!
Worcester, Gloucester, down the Severn
South to Somerset and Devon,
On to Dorset, Kent and Surrey
Passing London in a hurry.
Berkshire Thames where Oxford punts,
Herts or Bucks for Cambridge Hunts,
Hants and Northants, Norfolk, Suff,
Cornwall, Monmouth - that's enough.
