[Q3210]

Please open and enjoy Nature by our own late great poet, H D Dossie Carberry.
Also included is a brief biography of Mr. Carberry, someone I had the pleasure of knowing along with his dignified parents who were good friends of my Grand Father.

<span style="text-decoration: underline">Nature
</span>
We have neither Summer nor Winter

Neither Autumn nor Spring.

We have instead the days

When the gold sun shines on the lush green canefields-

Magnificently.

The days when the rain beats like bullet on the roofs

And there is no sound but thee swish of water in the gullies

And trees struggling in the high Jamaica winds.

Also there are the days when leaves fade from off guango trees’

And the reaped canefields lie bare and fallow to the sun.

But best of all there are the days when the mango and the logwood blossom

When bushes are full of the sound of bees and the scent of honey,

When the tall grass sways and shivers to the slightest breath of air,

When the buttercups have paved the earth with yellow stars

And beauty comes suddenly and the rains have gone.
