Windmill Hill
(16th April 2010)
On a cool spring evening, my soul fell still,
I listened closely to my heart’s insight,
Embracing the past upon Windmill Hill.
A fifteen year dream held within, until
I shattered its ash in fading sunlight.
On a cool spring evening, my soul fell still.
I stood by a bowl mound, relished the thrill
Of promise, felt my heart spark and ignite,
Embracing the past upon Windmill Hill.
I drank in marks on the land, took my fill
Of aged work. Here, past and present unite.
On a cool spring evening, my soul fell still.
They built it with purpose, focus and skill
I felt the echoes of their long dead might
Embracing the past upon Windmill Hill.
Enthralled and numb to encroaching night’s chill,
Bound up, willing captive to mind’s delight.
On a cool spring evening, my soul fell still,
Embracing the past upon Windmill Hill.
