November Fireside Nights
Manage episode 382308450 series 2800955
It’s a foul November night, so why not come and join me aboard the Erica by the warm glow of fire light. I have with me a lovely book that I found last year in a second-hand bookshop and think that it's perfect for a night like this.
Journal entry:
1st November, Wednesday.
“November is born brave
This morning.
The dark water is alive
With movement
And a scatter
Of light.
The walk from the boat
To car
Is under a starfield and
A bold moon.”
Episode Information:
In this episode I read the following poems:
‘The Chilterns’ by Rupert Brooke (extract)
‘Cotswolds’ by David Ashby
‘Cotswold Roads’ by Eva Dobell
‘Tewkesbury Road’ by John Masefield
‘The High Road’ by John Haines
‘Dedicatory Ode’ by Hillaire Belloc (extract)
‘The Ancient Wall’ by Brian Waters
‘The Cotswold Farmers' by John Drinkwater
All poems (excluding Brooke’s) are found in Forest and Vale and High Blue Hill: Poems of Gloucestershire, the Cotswolds and Beyond collected by Johnny Coppin (1991).
I finish with an extract from LTC Rolt’s Narrow Boat.
