Ennereilly Beach.

On Ennereilly Beach today
A chill dug
Into my bones
It lay beneath my skin

Looking out to sea
There’s not a trace of anyone I know
Especially not you.

Black Rocks
On Ennereillly Beach
A starfish
With a broken star
I threw it to the sea

Maybe it will swim again
Maybe it will swim

Be taken with the ebb and flow

And then
Two fleeing people
Nearly out of sight
Skipping ‘round the world

Where are they headed for
Where have they gone ?
