Bats In the Belfry

Like the hordes of bats which surround the belfry of our old clock tower wild images scurry around pressing my mind without referee. When the moon and stars appear, illuminating sea and sand, sights unseen which ears can hear - my incessant tongue may set free.   written July 2016 I promised myself - no quatrains this year so I broke the rules.
