Earth stream and tree encircled by sea

Waves sweep the sand from my island.

My sunsets fade.

Field and glade wait only for rain

Grain after grain love erodes my

High weathered walls which

Fend off the tide

Cradle the wind

To my island.

 

Gaunt granite climbs where

Gulls wheel and glide

Mournfully glide o'er my island.

My dawn bride's veil damp and pale

Dissolves in the sun.

Love's web is spun - cats prowl mice run

Wreathe snatch-hand briars

Where owls know my eyes

Violet skies

Touch my island

Touch me.

Beneath the wind turned wave

Infinite peace

Islands join hands

'Neathe heaven's sea.

 

Dark harbour quays like fingers of stone

Hungrily reach from my island.

Clutch sailor's words - pearls and gourds

Are strewn on my shore.

Equal in love bound in circles.

Earth stream and tree return to the sea

Waves sweep the sand from my island

From me.
