5487 - Car trip 3 - Yorkshire again

Wasn’t sure I was well enough to drive 
But in the end I just couldn’t resist 
I thought a short drive might be a relief 
So headed towards Halifax. A mist
On the M62, queues slow to shift
But I turned off to get to Halifax 
And though Piece Hall was closed, enjoyed my drift
By foot around the town. It was relaxed 
Yellow stone everywhere. And then my next 
Goal was Ilkley. Drove through Keighley. Survived
What seemed like peak rush hour, brought car to rest 
At the foot of Ilkley Moor and then tasked
Myself with a bloody good walk. I thrived
Despite my cold. Ferns, heather, sheep. What bliss!
