Strange sounds from the dark….

Midnight banshee wails.
Which just might be banshee wails.
Or just…cats. Maybe.

*******************************

Watery. But still beautiful, still inspiring…

Underwater light,
Dripping dappling overlaps.
Sharp tang of mushrooms.

(24/10/14)

*******************************

The woods are glorious, everything copper, bronze, silver, gold…priceless!

Turning green to gold,
the Midas Touch run amok.
Autumn’s alchemy.

********************************

Another glorious Autumn morning in West Cork….

Mist slants beams of light
The hills’ flanks steam lazily
Shadows stretch themselves

(10/10/14)

********************************

Steaming a straight line between the water and the trailing oak leaves, in strong morning sunlight, a kingfisher….

A whirr and a blur,
Turquoise, vermillion dart.
Arrows are flying.
