Ghosts swimming at Break Neck Beach



We climbed barefoot - 

There was salt in our hair - 


Below us, waves broke upon rocks and sand -

Anne had swum here with her sisters -


Their young ghosts had swum with us today -

I'd heard their voices - 


My heart still raced - 

They knew these names - 


Portscatho - 

St Mawes, St Anthony in Roseland -
