Low along the Fox Paths
Manage episode 371415089 series 2800955
It’s a wild and wet July night of wind and rain. So why not step aboard for a while as we meander down some fox trails and contemplate the pleasure of sunshine and dark skies.
Journal entry:
11th July, Tuesday
“A quarter to midnight.
Lying in bed and listening
To the drum of rain
On the cabin roof.
All day I have watched the dark
Clouds boil in the cauldron
Of the west.
Storm heads tower
In castle greys.
Maggie and I stood
On the hill with no name
Watching the ragged veils
Of cloud-tear
Sweep towards us
It falls like brush strokes
Played on a snare drum.”
Episode Information:
In this episode I read a very short extract from the Ladybird Book What to look for in Summer by E.L. Grant Watson (1960) published by Wills and Hepworth.
I also read the following Sabbath Poems XXII and XXIII by Wendell Berry (2013) published by Catapult.
