Full moon on the Burren

*

The path to the Poulnabrone Dolmen, in the Burren, is muddy and full of potholes. Black crows fly around the old electricity posts. The night is slowly falling.

The dolmen stands lonely in the flat land blown by a cold sea breeze. I take the path back, now under a full moon. A blackbird sings hidden in a bush behind me. It sounds like a baby laughing. I walk quick back to the car.
