Bearded

We walked to Crowden today, and saw a bird a long way away that was flying from southwest to northeast across the valley where the Pennine Way goes. It may or may not have been a Lammergeier, but it was flapping constantly as it went, so maybe not. What we did see, though, about a mile away, was a knot of twitchers at the quarry…

I thank you God
for beautiful places
and beautiful weather.
I remember that many people
have no access to these things:
their lives are ugly, circumscribed
by injustice, hatred and pressure;
they walk on different paths
from the paths I walk.
Your Kingdom come,
your will be done
on earth as in heaven.
