Happy National Poetry Day


Happy National Poetry Day

Here is a very apt poem for National Poetry Day. It was inspired by Pete's music performed in Japan last week; 'Towards Sky,' celebrates the lives of Wordsworth and Basho.

Towards Sky by Gillian Byrom-Smith

Towards sky,

towards mountains,

we move restlessly

like wind;

like Earth herself.

Across fields,

across water,

we shelter under trees,

under sun, under moon, under sky.

Our warm breath mimics clouds.

Mist gathers in dips,

swirls like flocking birds.

Time stands still,

no longer exists;

sun and moon our time pieces.
