"Things Written Down"

Aisling / Vision Poem
of The Book of Kells

Doorways
Crossovers
Cloaks of Mist
The knowledge of waves
Crimson beaks of small birds
The people of the hills
Kindred wind
Stones of witness
The cry of destiny
The sleep of sorrows
Encompassment
The shape of doves
Rebirth

These things written down-
Drawn out in the overnight
What was seen
What was said

What was heard - from a distance
Whispered-
Dreamt of-
Written down and drawn out in the overnight
The crimson beaks of small birds touching, kissing
curled around the whisper, the dream -
Things written down.

Panelists include:
Dr. Christina Andruk,
Dr. Christina Carlson,
