Still Rain

It’s raining in Scotland,

falling like tears

and the sky looks as gloomy

as a million years


and the Forth Bridge is standing

- a line in the grey -

with boats on the estuary

languid - today;


unraveling the traveling,

it’s seagulls that call

‘come on, you’re a moving

slow train - on a rail’


I’ve got furrows to plow -

purposeful - now.

  2. I love this - and can visualise it so well! Nothing but rain up there and nothing but sunshine down here - no compromise. Why do you spell travelling the American way?

  3. "furrows to plow" - I suppose you will notch up both types as go go on
