Scottish Mist

SCOTTISH MIST as I lie on your chest- sculpture listen to the lament peculiar birds are suspended above the poignant attraction of your eyes and the edifice is satisfying as blue trilbies sneeze in the Scotch mist come nearer love as the hero’s trace the heavens ubiquitously there are blizzard trinkets tumbling (For Michael P. Clarke) © Kim van Breda— 26 June 2014

Being 100% Scottish, the title attracted me, and the poem having read, even more. Nice writing Kim, James :)
