Avebury to sun rise at the modern long barrow of All Cannings.

19th December
Not about comfort...

We set off to Tesco's
Early to avoid the Christmas madness
A damp car park in the drizzle and grey
Sound of weather and alarms...




Inside Tesco
Busy already...

Then onward, down the motorway,,,
To Avebury, Kennet avenue

Inside the refurbished Avebury manor
The sinister tinkling of Christmas
For the children

Then back outside
To the rain, crows and a ferocious wind...

Then Marlborough
And the so, so lovely Polly Tea Rooms.

Then silence
The Travelodge,
Inside and out

Early next day
A solstice sunrise at All Cannings

'into the light'



Where I will be...
My ashes in a niche
