Gail
You are cordially invited to meet
Josie Cora and myself
Outside of the White X pub
Either wear no shoes
Or be prepared to remove them
As this is the pub that floods
At high tide the beer garden
Becomes part of the River Thames
The staff change into wellingtons
And bring drinks from the bar
I knew it in passing
But it soon became my local
(even though I do not drink)
( I only think)
Virginia reintroduced me
To this wonderful place
Shortly after we moved to Richmond
Bring your poems
I am seeing David on Monday
