Poem 157 of 230: THE MANY ELEMENTS OF BUXTON - SUMMER 2001
From lead and Blue John,
The list goes on:
Mineral water,
Foliage-dressed wells,
Green-grass on the Slopes,
Limestone dales,
Clay-tiled arcades,
Plain-glass awnings,
Cast-iron columns,
Stained-glass ceilings,
Earthen garden-urns,
Wooden inlays,
Soil in a cross,
Pebble pathways,
And, had between walks,
Combating the
Weather element,
Plenty of tea!
