And the terns are back, swooping and screaming over the water…
Announcing themselves,
returning terns bank and turn,
shrieking their delight.

********************************
Full moon, Bantry Bay, magical…
Glittering fragments
form a dazzling mosaic.
Full moon on full tide.

*********************************
Everything Irish weather has is here this month…
Rain puddles steaming.
Changeable April changes.
The mountains, snow-capped.

***********************************
Torrential rain ends as suddenly as it begins, pure April weather…
Into the vacuum
the rain shower left behind
floods a blackbird’s song.

***********************************
Sunsets these evenings are dramatic…
Tree-tops like crows’ claws.
Ravens cross a bullfinch sky;
Slowly turns starling.
