"Seamus Heaney turned up for the famous Causley Hardy-in-N.Cornwall trip...we got chased by wild bees in the Valency Valley, someone had stolen the signpost to Beeny...Seamus also insisted on eating a Cornish pasty. Haven't heard a word from him since" Charles Causley letter 1982

from BIRTHDAY GREETINGS (for CC)
by Ted Hughes

I meant to rhyme your dream:
All Cornwall
A willawaw sea
Of Moors and Mounts
Bursting to granite foam,
A tide-rip cemetery---
One erupting tomb
Of oracular Menhir bones
Which called each other by name

[Olivia Clementine Lowry @oliviaclowry]

"Where do you come from, sea,
To the sharp Cornish shore,
Leaping up to the raven’s crag?"
