Welcome to our ‘Wooden Poetry’ post which each week features an informative poem about a different type of wood.

.
mushy peas

The European Yew prefers life in the shade
He’s fond of mountains, church yards,
And things that are home made.

The European Yew
Likes mushy peas and stew
But when it comes to cooking them
He doesn’t have a clue.
