bird

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

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