The Picture Postcard Man

Post by Colin J... » Tue Jul 20, 2010 12:31 pm

Up hill, down dale,
by river and by loch
in mountains and in valleys new
have you ever met him,
as you walked
stopped for a chat , discussed the view

He must be out nigh every day,
he’s photographed near all the land
sweeping clouds and sunsets,
hills with lots of colours grand
i find it hard to BELIEVE
He’s never met another man

But then he may be like a spectre,
a fleeting glimpse of different hues
a flash , a click, the picture taken
then gone to destinations new

I myself have never seen him
While walking out in hill or glen,
No sight nor sound of
Colin Baxter
