January 19th 2008


What do we call the shimmer of sea, each platt & wavelet, as tide pours in?
What word do we have for the shadow of a white birch limb on cracked white-lichened rock?

The wolf moon is bulbous, slung low over Moidart’s crumpled hills.
Two curlews raise their pibroch plaint of wild poetry & are gone.
