Inner Farne ...



Late June, early July, there are Guillemots here shoulder to shoulder

The wiry Geordie had pale blue eyes - 

Serenity 2 drew near Inner Farne - 

There are Jumplings here then he said - 

The cliffs are black with birds -

In the winter we sail to Lindisfarne - we see waders and Godwits

The boat turned into the wind - 

I could see St Cuthbert's Chapel - 

Puffins flew crazily above the waves - 

When the visitors left, gentle ghosts would bless the seabirds -
