A Sonnet Here At Robin Hood’s Bay
Sunhat ‘n crabbing bucket – rock-pool girl! She watches where her sandaled-feet stone-stand.
Sunhat ‘n crabbing bucket – rock-pool girl! She watches where her sandaled-feet stone-stand.
Climatic clarity! Emergency emergent ‘cross – awash tsunamic – th’sea of consciousness…
Sunfire shines glist’ning through the scriptured glass to light the southern rose ‘n Yorkshire’s heart!
Flame-flick’ring fire of th’ancient dragon’s tongue callcries – Cymraeg! – o’er where the riverrun writes sediment’ry.
The dog-violet blends its colour in amongst the scattered sky, as light coursecrashes through the canopy…
Alit along the current air did fall, in feath’ry glide, a-whilst my coffee waits, a crow.
Outside, upon the paved ‘n railing-ringed walk – sheltered – way, where Sunday patrons sit, the sun, through th’river’s auld reflection sings on th’wooden slats below the Cascade Steps.
Now sparse the signs of entropied life sit, floating despite th’impossibility.
Shape ‘n send forw’d the currents riv’ring by! With your time-warped scraps the bed doth lie suffused!
