Billyacatting Hill, the rock was formed unevenly, it already had a thin skin, but water has continued to form the granite and sandstone outcrops.
Water kisses the hardness so tenderly
where human hands would abuse,
and force.
Water shapes and smoothes,
inviting character,
presence,
gift.

Lovely. When I first read the opening words I read them as “Billycarting Hill” and expected some rollicking tale from childhood. Instead I was lulled by a gentle ode to water.

As a kid, I thought it was Billycarting Hill, and looked forward to a time when I could try my billy-cart on it. It would not have been successful!
