Let’s see where you rate for exploring nature during lockdown. Feel free to comment other options and I’ll add them on. If you have taken any good photos of the walk then post them in the comments under the Facebook post 🙂
Did you know there is a Poetry Anthology ” A Sense of Place “ celebrating North Lincolnshire written by local people?
The place I call home People often groan There’s nothing to do here; nothing to see If they open their eyes There’s a world of possibility Look past the rigid steel exterior And search for the beauty inside Behind the smoke and chimney’s Rabbits run wild and birds take flight Foxes roam on through the night The fields, the woodlands Watch the deer run free Across the fairway into the trees A whole world of wonderment and nature Just waiting to be seen Kingsway, Twigmoor and Ashby Ville Normanby Park and Alkborough’s maze on the hill Take a walk down the mud tracks Feel the leaves beneath your feet Look up, look down
Let your eyes wander around This is North Lincolnshire And this is where we start Local music shows passion With homegrown lyrics The crowds chant a chorus The echo around the room; the atmosphere Their music was made here Maybe in a kitchen Or out back in a shed The ideas, the knowledge North Lincs brought inspiration to somebody’s head The good people do here Even the people on tour Lights and laughs in The Baths Hall The memories held in its old walls To the new auditorium that will bring even more This is North Lincs And this is where I grow Maybe I’ll stay here It’s the place I call home
Poem from “A Sense Of Place”
