Faireadh
[Act of Keeping Watch]
Sensibilities awake, pray, keep watch!
Untamed oceans swiftly switch their ancient moods.
Watch for descendents of St Brendan’s whale
unconfirmed sightings of isles and shoals.
Voyage overcoming leviathans of fear in prayer,
discerning their transmuted form in Crìost.
