I know this house isn’t haunted, and I wish it were I do;

For it wouldn’t be so lonely if it had a ghost or two.

(Joyce Kilmer) 

Timeless sea breezes,
sea-wind of the night:
you come for no one;
if someone should wake,
he must be prepared
how to survive you.

Extract – translation by Albert Ernest Flemming (Rainer Maria Rilke)

… and expect anything

to grow. What we scatter

is said to have roots

that know the way.(an excerpt from Jenny Brown’s ‘Native Grasses’)
