This year's BBC Radio 3's Carol Competition is set to Niall Campbell's poem which he reads here:
Look Here the Winter's Brightening [click on this to listen]
LOOK HERE! THE WINTER'S BRIGHTENING by Niall Campbell*
Turn up the lights of a light-filled room.
Outside the winter’s closing in.
The night is cold but here’s the tune:
Look here! The winter’s brightening!
Down goes the sun like a honeycomb.
Up goes the storming winds and rain.
But here’s moon, its full white bowl.
Look here! The winter’s brightening!
Love sets a plate and lays the meal.
Love is the winter’s welcoming.
Its snow white door, the turning key.
Look here! The winter’s brightening!
[* I took the words from his recitation as I can't find them printed anywhere!]
Our back garden this week
Early morning light
Daylight but no sunlight in the back garden
Sunlight hitting the trees
Alley heading to Bearsden Cross through New Kilpatrick Churchyard

Cruise ship at King George's dock which is is docked there. We noticed people on board...migrants being temporarily housed.
