every seal becomes a selkie
every horse becomes a kelpie
and the wail of the wind
a banshee cry.

Now you're talking!
There is much of the Celtic in this. I actually knew all the words without explanation! :-)
Simple, elegant, to the point and beautiful!
That's the heilands - scary!
I enjoyed it - a mythical place.
and I learned some new words I like :banshee, kelpie, selkie...
Dear Juliet, several years ago I wrote this short kind of joke of a poem which can be a sea-lagoon answer to yours:
YEAT’S SONG
A row of gulls on the rail in the cold,
by the waves.
How good they are, much better than us,
at waiting for anything that may pass
with, at their bills, Yeat’s song:
“Fish, flesh, or fowl”.
Best wishes, Davide
sounds like a land i would love to see some day...
This piece rings with legend and nature. Very nice!!
Very interesting play with words and forms.
I wish I could go there, hear that banshee crying.
The myth of the Selkie is one of my favorites...
papua say hiiiiiiiii
this is really captivating. and after my visit to the hebrides last summer i can feel it all that bit better too. lots of atmosphere and most lovely! have a good weekend
Great words. :-) Celtic culture lends itself perfectly to poetry.
very simple and pure, informative yet beautiful
generous of you to provide the links!
I absolutely adored this. The use of mythology was so nice and I learned something new today too.
how wonderfully magical... the word sounds are so lyrical and great fun to read aloud. ;)
Beautiful! I love the references to your local mythology. The sound of the wind as a banchee cry at the end is a haunting way to seal the poem. (I did mean to make a pun!)
A beautiful use of mythology. The imagery is gorgeous.
