Poetry

Below is a short poem by George Mackay Brown. The last two lines are carved into his tombstone.

A Work for Poets

To have carved on the days of our vanity

A sun

A ship

A star

A cornstalk

Also a few marks

From an ancient forgotten time

A child may read

That not far from the stone

A well

Might open for wayfarers

Here is a work for poets -

Carvethe runes

Then be content with silence
