The moon caught in a yew tree ...



Embers are still glowing in the grate -

Above my head, low ceilinged rooms -


The air smells of woodsmoke -

A window looks out upon the narrow street - 

Houses of honey coloured stone wait for summer - 


Ale shines in the glass -

Stories are told here - 


The moon caught in a yew tree -

Ships with torn sails - 

The Saint upon the hill -
