Promised


Promised

The garden paths
Could lead you anywhere
The man said
Eagle eyed
The twists and turns
Old hat now
A matter of fact
And the soul stuff
Out the back routine
A breeze
The location was
Everything
And the leaves
Scurrying at your heels
A key
Nowhere to be seen.

A poem set in a pub
in Cambridge.
