CORNWALL-LEGENDS/HAIKUS

 

 

 

THE SEA BECKONED BY

OLD MINE WORKINGS SILHOUETTED...

AGAINST THE RED SKY

 

I'M A KERNOW MAN

AND NEVER CROSSED THE TAMAR...

TO THOSE HEATHEN LANDS

 

THAT'S RIGHT MEE HANDSOME

JESUS USED TO COME HERE WITH...

HIS UNCLE JOSEPH

 

THEY TURNED TO STONE

FOR DANCING ON THE SABBATH...

THOSE MERRY MAIDENS

 

BLOWN INLAND BY A

MIGHTY STORM AND TAKE SHELTER...

IN A DERELICT CHURCH

 

A PAGAN WEDDING

THREE FIGURES OF EIGHT AROUND...

AND THROUGH "MEN AN TOL"

 

MAGICALLY FINDING

THE WAY...A PILGRIM'S PROGRESS

THROUGH MUCH RAVAGED LANDS

 

SUSTAINS MORE THAN FOOD

ORGAN MUSIC IN THE CHURCH...

FEEDS ONE'S VERY SOUL

 

FOLLOWING THE LEY-LINES

DOWN TO CORNWALL'S SACRED MOUNT...

HERE IN MARA-ZION

 

TO EVERY VILLAGE

HE WENT...THAT MUCH TRAVELLED MAN

KING ARTHUR...THE JUST

 

EN ROUTE TO PENZANCE

CROSSING MOORELAND AND PASSING...

HANIBAL'S CARN

 

THE RYTHMIC SOUND OF

HORSES IN THE SHALLOW WATERS...

OF MARAZION'S BEACH

Say Something Terrorible v3 by RickthePoetWarrior

My mom says ‘If you can’t say anything nice then don’t say anything’. Sorry mom but under the guise of poetic license I penned these beauties.
