Poems
Oct 2010
While You Were in Scotland
In my ancestral land -
A land, you say, of no trees
But wind, and more wind -
You sleep and wake before me
Here, I sink into smooth cushions
And someone elseโs words
And a purpled sky
That soothes the longing in me
Until I remember that it is
You I want to sink into,
You I want to hear, only you
I want to soothe me.
