2024-04-12 oh, the light!


long shadows hold hands over rolling hills

dotted with grubby cotton balls
frolicking, or grazing, or something
too subtle to notice from here 

halfway up a tree, wooden planks balance

in the shape of a hut, or a house, or
a hideout. in plain sight for a split second

flooding banks spill over, blanketing roundly

the earth drops away and rises again
we are flying and then not and then
clinging to the edge of the world

north sea laps at the window 

not quite golden hour, but almost
home
