that yesterday's vote will show
equally expansive views

Etive & Coe Munros

After the summit we listen
to the raven and re-read the mountain
then stray from the blue-line-trail
of the digital herd. We smile
through the infinite choice

of path-free ground. We pass
the foot of the crags
and wind-sculpted Rowan.
A bee meanders past,
cuts through the silence

doing its…

Rob Roy Way: Aberfeldy to Pitlochry

Rob Roy Way – last day
from our own homestay
the countless journeys
walking not to escape
but to live life deeply

beside Tay water
darkened by its own depth
constellations
of foam swirl like thoughts
repeating – this is good

blackthorn blossom
a declaration
made loud by bees

Rob Roy Way, penultimate day

on the Queen’s Drive
we talk of royals, Epstein
Isreal – joined dots,
but here all is green and good,
and trees wear crowns that matter

near the white tower
we hear bagpipes from Taymouth

Light and shade

spruce-filtered sun

to the stage of this new day

No questions asked of where the sky begins

work thoughts hard to shake
this whammy of the big stuff
then those two geese rose,
no questions asked
of where the sky begins

The Birks

veridian world
emerging - garlic and moss
the beech still cling
to last year's bronze...
sometimes it's hard to let go

A touch of new light

same old, same old
this Monday morning commute
familiar burn
and yet, the flow is freshened
by the touch of new light
