Today in Kilchoan
The tide seemed to stand still,
uncomfortable, sullen and swollen.
The bay - an overfed stomach
stretched and sluggish,
all motion confined to the depths...
The indulgence continued -
more rain was imbibed,
clouds slithered into an open mouth.
No-one heard the pleas for relief -
the south winds rushed them away,
over the hills to Sanna.
