A rocky beach, County Antrim by Kenneth Allen. (No changes were made to the image.)
The Birdman
Sea spray wets his lips
where he plays in the coves
at the base of the cliffs,
curls his hair to a darker hue
as he spills
pale green stones
from inattentive hands
to lay in shallow pools,
and turn his eyes to stormy skies.
