The notice said "No Entry, closed till future time", I clasped the railings, my body spreadeagled, I counted loud each chime Of distant, pointed Church, The quarters, halves, and hours, As I surveyed this Regal Building, And longed to infiltrate these Towers. The Swans Cruised immaculate the Mirror Moat, The Moorhens Moved like some crazed speedboat, The Birds from China Hooted, wagged their tails so free, The Mallards, and The Geese, Noisy, waved their beaks at me. My fingers clenched white, My arms so heavy, My eyes lost their sight, Until I noticed Vulpees Vulgaris Strolling up from Kingsground, pass my statue body, As slow my head swivelled round. He ignored all things here As he daintily crossed The Yard, The Chancellors House sternly stared, The Closed Gates, alert, on guard. But Reynard, holder of a Freedom Pass, Just loped his way along, And with one strong leap beyond The Pal A flash of brush, Was gone! ELTHAM PALACE CLOSED 1990 |
