Lower Lake

The lower lake of Glendalough in the early evening sun

LOWER LAKE

Be still my dear
And drop down to the lower lake
To plumb its hidden depths
And look with eyes anew
To find a secret geometry

Be still dear one
And feel a racing rhythm
That seems to slow time down
For in this moment,
There’s beauty to be found

Be still my dear
It dances all around
That only your wild and open heart can see
By morning dew and evening song
And all hours in between

Be still my love
And rest with me
I’ll show you heavens door
It’s just for you
To push on through
And break your heart for sure

Under a canopy below the lower lake of Glendalough, the water flows to feed the Avonmore

Electric Avenue

A foamy blanket washes up on the newly laid sand on Greystones south beach

After the storm, the heaving energetic sea cleared a path for healing soles. And souls.
Foamy pulses found their way into each crack and crevice
Forming new channels and escape routes to return to the one.
Laying down new layers of soft sand to smooth a path for tired feet.


The gulls basked in a warm and tingling air
Swept fresh by Ellen, or so the storm was called
While busy Turnstones fetched up on newly laid sand and salty seaweed
And little children ran away from the rushing waves.


Oh, take me away on the tide
And toss me about on the breeze
Electrify my senses
And cleanse my beating heart

An electric avenue bursting with post storm negative ions…
