Mist veiled the islands -
Leaves fell from the oak trees -
Two seals watched us from the water -
They drifted with the tide -
We felt their gaze upon us -
We saw their neat shapely heads -
Their dark shining eyes -
I remembered what Wittgenstein said about the language of lions -
Would the same be true of seals ? -
If those two seals could speak, would I be able to understand them ?
