The east wind
blows dry
fallen down
from the mainland hills
The east wind
carries like
dried husks
of fallen leaves
The east wind
cruelly cold
penetrates
to the bone
The east wind
brings the sun
but no warmth
the lamb shivers
The east wind
stifles inspiration
for those westward looking
over dark machair lands
The east wind
darkens the mind
while waiting
for the west to return
