Mullins Yard

 

Where are they now

Them

Old Parrett Flatner’s

Those workhorse

Those wetlands

Those one-time  

Wooden wonders  

Where are they now

Those

Flat bottomed old

Scull oared

Those withy them

Turf boats each tied  

Tell me

Where are they now

Damn these

Tired eyes of mine

Have no fear

They be 

Ever so near sir

Both the toll and the

Ferry men cried

Look right there

Next the fallow

By the stony heaped

Long barrow

Down in the meadow

By Old Mullins Yard

Tis there over yonder

In the shallows

Sleeping soundly

Tween the milk thistle

And sedge n fine

Somerset willow

Tis there lies the last

Of them old

Parrett Flatner’s

Moored n dry docked

In Old Mullins Yard
