In scouring winds/ which drive the sleet inshore/ I am alive, alive!    

Jann Wirtz, Oct 11. 


 

Memories of Heddons Mouth Dec 8th 2011

The sound of river and rain merged as one sound

Looming hills

Sheets of Rain driving horizontally, billowing like curtains

Sudden Roar of wind like an express train

Then quiet again

Ferocious weather. Coming out of the shelter of the woodland to a wild turbulent sea.

 

 

 

Sea wind roar

propelled from the rear
panorama of sea and sand unfolding

Patterns of darkness and light
moving at speed
reveal rays of life and hope

Shifting sands
whipping snaking biting
Take us on the journey of the Burrows

ELEMENTS

 

Under pale indigo clouds

we walk

wind on our skin

rain against our hoods

sounds in our heads

soft light on muted colours

sky seeping into sea

 

All our histories

etched in sand (stones)

millions of years travelling

tossed through water

hurled against the beach

snatched back by the sea.

Insistent voices

quietly lapping the shore.

And the skylark rises

 

And sings

And sings

 

Paula Newbery - Jul.11
