The Goddess of Ballachulish
Language: English
I lie under peat To the west of the loch Waiting to be discovered Or not ... I am woman Made of wood and stone I was loved Once ... I don’t remember Why I was made? I don’t remember What I am for? A sharp noise overhead Voices ... A sudden glimpse of sky I am reborn!
