Published in A Little Touch of Cliff in the Evening: New Writing Scotland 30, ed. by Gerry Cambridge and Zoë Strachan (ASL, 2012) Sheila Templeton FOR R. S. THOMAS I hear your bold blackbird, that slow singer, alone at my desk yet walking with you through your valleys and hills, that shining stream bubbling notes of your music your pure Welsh music. And I am walking behind my father, born in your time, but seeded in his own north land, ploughing, proud to stride behind his pair o horse; high cheek-boned, hair rain-flattened the colour of wet barley, speaking the secret words to his beasts, turning his park into a sea of order, yes, with your stiff clods glinting in the wind, gulls and peesie-weeps skirling encouragement; above him only a dark yearning sky. Another enduring ordinary man, born to till and toil, to win his wars to wrestle with his burning under those stars.
I hear your 𝘣𝘰𝘭𝘥 𝘣𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘬𝘣𝘪𝘳𝘥, that slow singer,
alone at my desk yet walking with you
through your valleys and hills, that shining
stream bubbling notes of your music
your pure Welsh music…
—Sheila Templeton, “For R.S. Thomas”

It did give the district electors who could vote in the Electoral College, the smaller group that actually elects the U.S. President, but the district can never have more electors than the least-populous state.
