No-one comes to the lane end
But the old shepherd bent hard
To find his fattened flock

On the high cliffs he’ll find them
Or by the blackened skerries
Sheltered by lewisian rock

If you think words are just words...
I value words so much because so many days in the row words were all I had to keep going... some words were first aid for my soul. They were healing & guidance. A gift.
