Crop Circling

Crop Circles are abundant in Wiltshire
no more
The farmers are annoyed
And have cut out two more

Last year seventeen 
This year only seven
Only one you can go into
It felt like pure heaven

We climbed up the tram line
Like good Circlers do
Through the soft barley
Up the hill next to Silbury
What a view!

Into the circle
Cool air round our feet
It was soft and frondy this barley
What a treat!

We lay in the middle
And walked all around
Did some tai chi
And studied the ground

Different parts of the circle
Felt very different indeed
And one of our group
Her walking stick
She did no longer need!

Corn dollies in our bag
And home we did go
Thanking the Et's
For a beautiful show
