WALKED ALONE.A Poem by Terry CollettMONKS AT AN ABBEY 1968-1971The tall monk with large blue eyes, walked with his head to one side as if he spoke with God at an awkward angle. I gazed at the grey falling rain, the church roof from my cell window, became a slightly greyer grey. The dark haired monk, with the cissy girl hair, moaned about my apple picking, in his posh boy tone. Down by the woods, on a leaf strewn path, the French peasant monk walked alone. © 2014 Terry Collett |
