A Walk on the Edge 2018 | Nick Sims

A Shoreline in Cornwall
Nick Sims

Calean and Ollie the dog

grey sky grey ice
the stillness unheard
over the wind

   rifts in ice,
edge of a bare field
along the shore

winter flowers,
the wind
the only sound

ice stained red
from fields
once forests

summer’s light,
in bent beachgrass
beneath the ice

twilight,
two crows alight
on a barren tree top

dusk,
the faraway mist
follows the wind
