Photographs, poems and haiku by Derek Ross
Storm
The sea
is breaking the world,
shattering the sky,
lashing the shore
with surf and foam.
The wind
is a wild thing,
a roar, a cacophony,
whipping up a rage,
spray, salt and tears.
Yet still,
look at the birds,
hanging there, defiant,
patient, waiting for that
space between storms.
A calm
is out there, somewhere,
out of reach,but for now,
breath,believe,remain. Listen!, can you hear a bird…
calling?
Derek Ross.

Hi Liz, just found your recording of “Storm”! You have great reading voice, much better than my Scots brogue!! Really chuffed you took the time to do this and the comments are encouraging ,humbling, and emotional. You’ve made a wee Scotsman very happy 😃

I’m so glad, Derrick! I was a bit worried that my American accent wouldn’t do your poem justice, but I love the poem so much I went ahead and recorded it anyway.
