Season Song

Here's a song -
stags give tongue
winter snows
summer goes.

High cold blow
sun is low
brief his day
seas give spray.

Fern clumps redden
shapes are hidden
wildgeese raise
wonted cries.

Cold now girds
wings of birds
icy time -
that's my rime.

Anon, translated from the Irish by Flann O'Brien

Great shot. Where did you take it? And Flann O'Brien too, even if it is a piece of translation, fantastic.

Great shot. Perfectly captured.

Fantastic shot of the majestic stag, the leaves in the foreground are a great touch....so is the poem. The translator is obviously very talented...must be something to do with the surname;-) V
