On A Bridge Poem by Mike Finley

On A Bridge



the Rev John Boyce,
a native here
born 1810, died afterwards

author of Shandy Maguire
and The Spaewife,
a local hero and a bard

this bridge across
the purling Esque
is named for Rev. John

but the bridgeless
emigre hath not
a pint to put his hand upon
