Thank you suave - duly added to the growing stack.

And ahh... "Then the night swarmed with stars, like fish."

Yes, I have seen skies like that... at Avebury last New Year's Eve, and years ago at Diamond Head in Hawaii - stars so bright you could read your newspaper by then (but there was nothing in the newspaper that could compare with such a 'night swarmed with stars').

Replying to Littlestone

This poem is on the wall in the visitor's cetnter at Skara Brae on Orkney. It took me ages to track down. . I had to join a Makay Brown Internet Forum to get the name of the book it's in, then buy the book off ebay.

I should have just took a photo of the wall. . or even written it down. . but it's a fine poem. And the book's great too.
