>A cry cut through the winter's wind. "Who died?"
>the student asked, his focus far away
>from college friends who'd just arrived to stay.
>"Poor Hywel Jones," his grandmother replied.

>The guests had read of spirits that abide
>in Celtic lands - those keening ghosts who stray
>when souls are crossing - and they felt the fey
>forebodings carried where the cold wind cried.

>Across the road a carpenter once more
>bent to his task. The same old man who made
>cots for the village babies, now must build
>a thing to hold no hope. His power saw
>started to turn again. The cutting blade
>bewailed an ending, and its wild cry chilled.
