Letters from Yorkshire
‘it’s you // who sends me word of that other world // pouring air and light into an envelope’
‘Is your life more real because you dig and sow?’
‘our souls tap out messages across the icy miles’
‘his knuckles singing… as they reddened in the warmth’
‘me with my heartful of headlines // feeding words onto a blank screen’
‘he saw the first lapwings return’
‘Is your life more real because you dig and sow?’
‘our souls tap out messages across the icy miles’
‘his knuckles singing… as they reddened in the warmth’
‘me with my heartful of headlines // feeding words onto a blank screen’

When We Two Parted

‘Pale grew thy cheek and cold, // colder thy kiss;’

Winter Swans
‘waterlogged earth // gulping for breath’
‘we skirted the lake, silent and apart’
‘like boats righting in rough weather’
‘porcelain over the stilling water’

‘swum the distance between us’
‘like a pair of wings settling after flight’

‘like boats righting in rough weather’
‘porcelain over the stilling water’

‘But what to me?’
‘Oh! My God!’
‘her eyes, her hair, her hair’
‘t’wasn’t a woman - // more like a little frightened fay.’
