Built by the sea
But not of the sea
These enclosing walls…
*
It is a ‘Celtic’ thing
The Spirit tied-to-tide
And it is still understood
By today’s Old Bones…
*
There they sit
Lining the sea-front
Huddled together
Under-sun
Within ear-shot
Of the waves
Which lap the shore
And withdraw
On the out breath
In ceaseless rhythm
Which hints at beyond…
*
Built by the sea
But not of the sea
These enclosing walls.
