Galabraes
Standing Stones

‘Galabraes in June‘

In a green meadow
not far from a smoky coal-town
stand ancient stones
that do not assume,
but cast their peace
to the earth below in a rain of yellow pansies
and call us to them with their inevitability,
Saying
‘Friend, those who put us here
Knew you would come.‘
