The Rolling English Road by G. K. Chesterton

This is a fab poem that sushidog posted a link to in her journal. I love its story and its rhythm, especially the last two lines of the last verse. It's the sort of poem that should be recited loudly when slightly drunk at a family gathering

Ooh, that's really nice. It trips rather lightly off the tongue.

Always a great favourite of mine. Thanks for putting this on LJ.
