I'd like to tell you where we live,
but we’re not there, we’re on the move.
The journey is rebarbative:
perhaps a pillow could improve
your ride a little? It is far,
from there to here, home to away.
We’re hitched now to a wandering star,
and we have seen the Moon at play
in the night’s pastures like a foal.
We’ve seen the East and seen the West.
We’ve seen the endless rigmarole
of daybreak and the sun at rest.
So, pull your boots on and we’ll go
where tongue and alphabet are new.
We’ll take our seats and see the show –
beneath the sky, amid the dew.

I want to tell you where we live,..................why?
but we’re not there, we’re on the move.
The journey is rebarbative:....nicely weighted
perhaps a pillow could improve...
your ride a little? It is far,
from there to here, home to away.....just a thought
We’re hitched now to a wandering star,
and we have seen the Moon at play
in the night’s pastures like a foal..........fun image
We’ve seen the East and seen the West.
We’ve seen the endless rigmarole.......like that and the rhyme
of daybreak and the sun at rest.
So, pull your boots on and we’ll go
where tongue and alphabet are new
We’ll take our seats and see the show –
beneath the stars, amid the dew....second reference to stars
