Making Butter

There's nothing like it -

turning and turning the golden whiteness

inside the darkness of the brain

listening to the wooings and

partings and weddings

of soluble tossed-about syllables

listening for the drops

of buttermilk tricking away from

the golden - yellow firmness of a poem

Translated from Scottish Gaelic by the author Aonghas MacNeacail


 Thoughts and images that come to mind;
