Poems – Eleanor of Aquitaine

Storm wracks the Channel

Storm wracks the Channel.
To go aboard one babe in arms and one enwombed,
Or lose a kingdom?

Eleanor takes ship at Barfleur 1154


Gothic time. Then as now as shall be

Dwell in the Present.
Let life preserve the wholeness
In eternity.

Haiku, In Memoriam Eleanor of Aquitaine
Fontevrault 1203


Of light and nature

Hold tight to trobar.
Celebrate light and nature
For vanquishing ills.
