A Shetland Summer

By 4th May 2010December 9th, 2019No Comments

The gannet
penetrates
the water
like a missile
piercing
the reflection.

The otter
streamlines
the water
like a prow
splitting
the reflection.

The whale
erupts from
the water
like a volcano
smashing
the reflection.

The watcher
stands by
the water
like a statue
breathing
the reflection.
