Click here to hear the poet read his words:
bird
waves rumble
round the rocks
in November sunshine
I sit
gazing at the Mediterranean
my mind
far away
across the planet
or somewhere
deep inside myself
when I see
overhead
a solitary bird
a waterfowl
perhaps
a Canada Goose
a memory stirs
I start to smile
and
my heart sings
I like memories. They keep us together.

Lovely poem… and how it ends;
a memory stirs
I start to smile
and
my heart sings
a wonderful note to end it on!
