Guardian? Poem by ivor or ivor.e hogg

Guardian.


Surreal scenes of beauty lie
silently beneath the sky

You find them unexpectedly.
If you are lucky you will see.

Scenes seldom seen by human eyes
A veritable paradise
.
Which nature has successfully
managed to keep completely free.

From outside interference.
Secrecy her best defence..

Now you have glimpsed this paradise.
You will forget if you are wise.

Where you have been what you have seen.
You know too well what it would mean.

If it should become well known.
Instead of leaving it alone.

Some businessman would surely buy.
In search of profit he would try.

To sell it off as building lots.
A common fate of beauty spots.

What can you say to convince me
You will maintain the secrecy.

If you cannot then you must die
and with the other strangers lie.

I will kill you reluctantly
to maintain the security.

Of this secluded beauty spot
Have I the right or do I not?
