Raven Hall ...

The hotel was still on the edge of the world -

An avenue of leafless trees led to wind shaken walls -

Stone dogs gazed out at the sea - .

Logs smouldered in the library fireplace -

I walked in the late afternoon garden - 

Far below, seals changed their skins - 

I remembered my dream in the attic bedroom -

I woke to see the moon fill a starless sky -
