Yesterday In Laggan
By Gordon Jarvie
It was such a day
of sunshine wall to wall,
of heat haze and the year’s first frogs,
of blue hills stretching yonder.
It was such a day
of spring sun melting snow,
of fool’s gold blazing off warm rocks,
of joy to be alive.
It was such a day
of hinted rainbows and dissolving light,
of fragile silences
flooding towards infinity
that I wished to be nowhere else,
doing nothing else,
in company of no one else,
and I wanted it to be forever.
