My Mother Lies Here Copyright © Owen Robin Davies 2011

My mother lies here, high up in the downs.
Just on the down side of up she rests,
in woods, amongst ransome and wild chives.

The first crane we saw
Was a grey heron;
Masked, comic-book hero

Barley tops blush,
Thinned by drought.
A cruel winter mocked

Before The Solstice Copyright © Richard Whiting 2011

June. The wheat heavy on the stalk
Grey-green, sea-whispers in the breeze.
Sunlight sweeps across the fields

My father is a Master Thatcher;
I watch him leap up the ladder
Laden with Maris Widgeon Straw

You who once ploughed hedged Norfolk
fields which slope to the sea in blizzards
of gulls, found yourself in Bergen-Belsen

This is the waiting-room
To which your life has shrunk.
An apprentice-coffin of a space
