Guillemots

Swoop
Dive
Soar
Glide

Cliff tops
Grey skies
Raindrops
Sea spray

Listen; hear sigh
The mournful cry 
Of the guillemots

Listen
Silent in 
Your own self
To call the guillemots

Another night of theatre 
Another night
Of crowd control

Take me to your sky life
Pass on by
Your broken heart
Take me to your soul

Listen to the call, listen
And be silent 
In your own self

Hear the call
The mournful cry
From the grey skies
& the cliff tops

The call
From the raindrops
& the sea spray

The squawk
& sigh 
The beautiful cry
Of the guillemots
