The moon comes up over Portobello
and lays a road across the water
that nobody walks on.

A ferry is somewhere out there,
or a fishing boat, one light moving.
The harbour is keeping its own counsel,
which is what harbours are for.
This is as far as the free sample goes — the rest of Notes from the Fernery is waiting for you.
