Thoughts bustle this pure still city.
I'm remembering waves;
remembering the way, unmoved,
long ago; remembering busy sky.

Fulmars smash centre, fly clear;
the cross‐leaved spray, jagged, 
common sensuous, gull, sandpiper,
transplanted; summer's only home.
Spring just happiness away. 

Astral harbours, touched portals,
redshank, still‐backed, golden
knapweed, wrack‐heather, 
down stream squill, 
godwit dawn.
