Alport

A torrent crashes beneath a bridge,
Lies fathomless in shadow by the mill,
Scented, yellow cowslips ringing distant bells,
And shining people dancing on the hill.

A rocky hollow where a hermit has lived,
Shelf of speckled granite for a bed…
Sunlight in the elm trees along the ridge
Meadowsweet and nettles by the hedge.

And there are gardens, perfumed with peonies,
That catch me in their petals as I pass.
And underneath the shadows there are secrets told
Frost on stone, and wind along the grass.

I’m always running in memory
The sun is always in my hair.
The patient cows are standing in the river field.
I can hear the shouting waters everywhere.

I return to stand and ponder where the king-cups grow
Everything seems smaller, yet the same.
But all the magic visions have danced away,
Washed into the river by the rain.
Washed into the river by the rain.
