About

"This Poem 'In Days Gone By - Newbury'. Part 3 of the series Nature: Natural Healing.

A time when most of the UK Countryside was criss-crossed by small roads and slow moving cars.

And the pace was slower and more durable for nature.

A delicate balance had been formed between the new motor car and the hedgerows and byways that

struck a chord of harmony between each other.

Broken now, with too many Motorways and not enough cycle lanes -

leaving nature, floundering.

I the Author have been writing Poetry for around 20 years.

Most of it has been published on Amazon.

I write on varied topics which resonate with what I'm thinking or studying at that time.

Credit for the artwork on this piece, goes to Mike Miko for his interpretation of this

poem into pictorial Art form."

His skill in depicting the scenes of the Newbury bypass running through the heart of a forest,

with a ghostly image of Swampies son, was truly remarkable.
