5239 - Riverside walk

Gloomy and chilly. Even snowed not far
From here. Read about Shakespeare (Bill Bryson)
Then after snacking and chatting, time for 
A meet-up with Dermot, a long-time friend 
Not seen much of each other, not for some
Time. He paints nowadays, and he agreed
I could have one, and so I chose the one 
I wanted - a painting of Oxford Road
Or rather, two paintings, see if he could 
Paint one with left hand, one with right. It’s more
Interesting as a result, and it’s fun
Bright watercolour scene, a place I trod
Many times as a student with big hair
And bright shirts, shy but trying to be someone
