Heading west

cross the Border
wicked witches appear
twisty bends for half a mile

verge crumbles faces peer
number plate says
from up North

Granny Scott says Connemara
sounds like the start of a song

Grandpa Scott says Glendalough
sounds like he’s changing a tyre

ice box lumped between
restless back seat monkeys

Mum reaches back
peeled apple slap
separate the foes

Daddy driving
two weeks at the Twelfth
wife children camera painting things

green worn AA book
places history A to Z
stacks of illustrations

passing Ashford Castle Kong
