Poem
Nestled in the deep breathing green
Like the egg of the runner duck
In the heath, yet safe
From the fox and the weasel, and
Removed from the nearby oaks,
You stand in your stoic glory,
Cloaked by the earthsmoke,
Water lovingly relinquished
For the sake of the mystery,
Like the stories hidden in the
Ground beneath your unmoving feet.
I will come back to you.
