you have auburn hair
for this i call you jamie
you are not from inverness
and you did not fight
bonnie prince charlie
but the golden fuzz
on your chest
is his i swear
i was reading all the while
and those books i read
made me leave
my beaches for your mountains
i flew to you
on the biggest
and loudest bird
i could find
for three days
to find this nest
and you where here
only stopping for a wee rest
so i twisted the threads that pull us all
along each day
until yours and mine intertwined
and for a short while
i call you jamie
and i am to play the part of claire
and we are in our home
that you built in the mountains
asleep in the hay
