NY6860 : Work of the Mole Catcher

taken 10 years ago, near to Rowfoot, Northumberland, England

Work of the Mole Catcher
Work of the Mole Catcher
When melted snow leaves bare the black-green rings,
And grass begins in freshening hues to shoot,
When thawing dirt to shoes of ploughmen clings,
And silk-haired moles get liberty to root,
An ancient man goes plodding round the fields
Which solitude seems claiming as her own,
Wrapt in greatcoat that from a tempest shields,
Patched thick with every colour but its own.
