Description

Read the poem ‘Names of Rocks’ below:

 

I watch the silence out there

through the hurly gush of Atlantic

and tide swashing at everything I mean,

if I could find words.

 

I keep hearing it say nothing

to me. The moon shining

on white flecks of rock in the cliff face

does it all.

 

I’m looking at the rest of my life

from this shore. If only

I could swim out to it

but the waves are too high, too cold.

 

The language is in code

and I could do with some language

for the other side of now, but these

are the ones that carry everything – wind, sea.
