This will be my way
I will not go to breakfast
Instead to save that time
For writing
That is first for thinking
Then for writing
That is to engage my own mind
With the image of moorland bramble
On the box of Yorkshire Tea
That is to metaphorically
Walk along that path
Across the moor, atop the Pennines
Or to reminisce
On my own poem Preamble
As a way of returning to Dartmoor
As a way to remember
The five AM rising; to bathe in incense
With Gregorian chant, with monastic prayer
