Honorable Mention
Beyond Tennyson
Lia (E. V. Brooks)

Heather woke to the chorus
pulled the curtains
unbound the day.
Welcome arms,
subtle faces
and soft white linen
where the hills would lay.

Footsteps follow her
over Tennyson Down.
On the track,
towards the shore.
Catching the wind-
salt fingers rest winter
quiet on her skin.

Skimming stones across
ashen-white velvet,
skip over the calm
until sleep deepens within
causing her motion
edging the waves-
along the rocks
to the smugglers cave.

Grey and dark moss opens a mouth
allows darkness to play quietly
where Heather now drifts-
touching cold stone
with small fingertips.

She kneels beneath
the half-lit canopy-
lifting shells
from rock pools
resting words on the sea.
