Up North

Windmill

Barbed wire, broken fences

Irregular stone walls


Set against a blue sky

With a mist of silver bullets

About to pounce, or plummet


Wings of calculated dimensions

Listen to the wind, love her

For her energy, love her for her calm


And on this cold winters day

Love her for the warmth

She brings to those from fallen ground


Turn now and turn again

Show off your wares

Flaunt your infinite beauty


Set against a blue sky

With a drift of silver bullets

About to pounce, or plummet
