Bring the sky down,
in soft-dove-grey tears,
Upon the wet-field-sheep´s
soft downy ears,
Falling softly
down, from sad & pewtered sky,
Glistening
droplets, within the ruddy fox´s eye.
From the Black
Mountain´s murk, clod & slag,
Spun upon the
spindle, from life´s bent old hag,
Field, tor &
hillock, all bewitched in olive green,
Goblins hidden
deep, yet by humans to be seen.
Bequeathed from
Dragon´s mist-spread breath,
To all Welshmen
life, but to aliens, surely death,
The drizzled
weeping tears, of satin, shivered grey,
From hawk-beaked-heavens,
to whom we daily pray.
Of sodden
blackened clod & dampened muddy murk,
Saddened
awakening, from dreams in shuddered jerk,
Give me this old
land, of green & grey-plutonic sky,
And I shall be
peaceful, when my time comes to die.
