Solway Firth

By: Roger Hansford

 

                                    Historic witness, bright in

                                    wide meander, dividing peaks of

                                    St George and St Andrew.

 

                                    By silos at Silloth

                                    the skip of dolphins,

                                    jaunty and wavesmooth.

 

                                    Horizon of sunset and turbinebloom.

                                    An uncertain union - this sky

                                    of red, white and blue.
