The moon would light our dreams ...



After hearing the news, we walked towards Highwood - 

Sheep were grazing in the fragrant water meadows - 

The dark languid river flowed past waist high rushes -

Mayflies danced above the water - 

Soon bats would leave their secret lodgings - 

They'd trace their names in the darkening sky - 

Poppies would close their petals against the stars - 

We'd sleep under our lichened roof - 

The moon would light our dreams -
