Analysis of Stag supremely engaged…
Douglas Blair 1951 (London)
I at the one end
He at the other
Trees all around us
Rude noises smothered.
Windbreak for certain
And neither one moving
Feeling a kinship rare
Family here proving
Hiatus from duty
He regal in this aisle
Eight pointed Beauty.
Checking me out as well.
