When the day gets quiet…

When the day gets quiet I’m happiest. The radio is dormant and the only thing I hear is a pipe inside a wall. What a comfort the house is. Such an island. The old books whisper piratical conspiracies as they always do. I often think I’m best in loneliness. A linnet walks on a stone wall as if he’s lost the sea, his feet scaping patience.
