Hello Colin,
This is a really effective and thoughtful piece. There is nothing that I could suggest changing here.
Best wishes, Mike

Pausing by the black lochan
I saw the world within,
lichen on granite like peeling skin,
dried grass over sphagnum,
lizard and adder caught in a game.
Those rocks were smooth,
immarcesible as diamond,
hills weightless where they lay.
I had thought I could not reach them
so far did they seem,
yet knew them then
as the world was dreamt in me,
in stillness stayed
as water showed the night
and stars floated
on quiet glass
drawn from the abyss.
