A poem of my comments
                                     By Thomas Durham
Some are nice and helpful, 
Some are mean and hateful,
Some make me smile,
Some make me sad,
Some make me want to die,

Some help and some don’t,

short-eared durham owl
meditating over the dale's edge,
shadows the fields and folds
in elegant diurnal flight.

on windside,careful sight
may swoop to prey
and away.

your yellow broad-eyed look,
at once both sharp and distant,
holds me.
oh,silence,
oh ,wind on green,
oh. earth,
sky.

immense your held vision,
sphere without centre,
pied geometer of flight,
sketch your descent and ascent.

trees bunched by dry stone wall
call heart home....
