St. Enodoc

Rogan Whitenails

The creeping sync of Sinkininny Church;

And the sound in thrall to the shells that perch

On the graves is the tunnelling elfmill

Of ancient waves, breaking to fill

The rock pools of Daymer Bay.

 

A name I twice like to say:

Herberta Blanche Bone, Herberta Blanche Bone;

Her grave by the grave of the man for whom "Joan

Hunter Dunn" was the name most deserving

Of uninhibited and unswerving

Repetition.
