HOW SINGS THE SAVAGE BEAST

 

How Sings the savage beast

With a heart full of misery

When held within the narrow

Bounds of his captivity

 

How Sings the savage beast

With a heart full of joy

When his confines evaporate

And he is as free as a boy

THEY CLIMB WITH STRENGTH AND GRACE

 

They climb with strength and grace

And ramble wide and free

They stand alone as Floribunda

Standard or Hybrid Tea

The glorious English rose

Beautiful flower of history

THE SUFFOLK HORSE

 

The Suffolk Horse

Heavy draught horse

Beautiful Chestnut beast

Solid and dependable

With energetic gait

Known as “good doers”

The Suffolk Horse

Work horse of the land

LET THE WIND HOWL

 

Let the wind howl

Let the tempest blow

Bring forth the rain

Bring forth the snow

Then let the frost bite

Let the ice crack

Then we can get

The winter sun back

WHEN WINTERS BITE IS TAMED

 

When winters bite is tamed

Spring brings forth the shoots

Then summer scents the flowers

And the autumn earns the fruits

THE WINTER LAND LIES

 

The winter land lies

In suspended animation

Part of life’s eternal cycle

And with it, paused

Is its Infinite variety

But as the earth turns

Mother natures seed waits

Beneath the February snows

RED BERRIES

 

Red Berries grow

In abundance

On the holly bush

As the snow falls

Nature’s bounty

On the bough

Mother Nature

Stocking her Larder

For the long bitter

Winter to come
