A reply to a poem by R S Thomas

 A reply to a poem by R S Thomas


his words can cool

the standing stones at the heart

of a country colder in times going

the bare-knuckled distance

through all the books that tell

of the books that told of

the old time’s people at the heart 

of a country’s scree misaligned 

at the bottom of it all
