secret garden

By freespiral

Hungry Hill

Foaming layers shift,
Motionless sea birds glide by
on disparate planes.
Blue black rocks come up for air,
gulping bottle greeny breaths.

How perfect is this - a tanka (31 syllable poem) from my pal Pol's book The Silence Unravelling. A glimpse across to the Beara and Hungry Hill, everchanging under its cloudy winter wear.

Friends coming for lunch tomorrow - a cauldron of soup made, mince pies also and a quick zoom around with the hoover undertaken. The weather still wild.
