a good one.  Here's mine,

Here at home wellies, reeking new
made in America, innocent of mire
rise tower-like, bright and shiny, from my floor

Wellies, artificial constants of domestic policy
hoeing rows
not rowing ho's

Wellies, souvenirs of how we stomped each succulent puddle,
not Brooke's swimmers seeking cleanness,
but always wet behind the ears
