#2023 - Loch Insh

Loch Insh

 

pudding weather

 

the wind on the water

reeds dividing

 

sun shows the two ways at oars

 

weather upstairs

dungsides and pinespeak

 

a painterly place

mood revealed for a view

 

then off again

 

headhigh passages in bracken

 

bluebells from the uproot

 

the steady willow wave

drama of tresses

 

you see how I’ve not quite forgotten the people

though that is why we’re here

 

often will pass like ghosts

they see right through me too

 

trifle time

 

it’s almost as if one remembers

the land was this shape already when

 

a wander off, a forking in the mind

 

there’s no midge dares this wind

 

call the wild swans to worship

they still belong to the king

 

a while since – was it the 11.45?

 

it’s almost through all of the day

steel rails in their silence shine
