The Ouse at Olney

The Ouse at Olney
Oh God the Olney Hymns abound
With words of Grace which Thou didst choose,
And wet the elm above the hedge
Reflected in the winding Ouse.

Pour in my soul unemptied floods
That stand between the slopes of clay,
Till deep beyond a deeper depth
This Olney day is any day

I'm pleased to hear it. And it (yes, including the sky and the swans who serendipitously happened to swim into view) is 100% genuine. Though, as someone in whose pictures such details are usually Sheppertoned in, like Matilda I don't deserve to be believed.

That just goes to show that real scenes need to be SEEN and not interfered with.
Well seen!

In a perfect world real scenes would only need to be seen and taken. But in this world, alas, they only very rarely do.

Come rest awhile on nature’s platter
We’ll have a bite and a natter
The organ’s sound doth lift one’s heart
And chewy is the Bakewell tart.

Isisbridge club has replied to Studley
Perhaps your counties you confuse,
For Bakewell lies not on the Ouse.
The only tarts found here in Bucks
Are MK floozies wanting...

(Shucks! Can't fink of that last rhyme)

Howard Somerville club has replied to Isisbridge club
For any of these floozies
An organ will lift her heart
And thus she chooses
To go where the Ouse is.

Ducks.

An influx of ducks when the river's in flux.
What could be grander than having a gander
At chicks from the sticks who are seeking their kicks?

A superb Picture,I felt sure it was Doctored but is not, my old brain can't think of a rhyme to suit this so I won't bother.
