What remains
is the click, click, click
of the pebbles
in the shallow waters
of the beach,
the windy highstreet
with a library,
a fish and chips place
and two charity shops,
a music festival
in the next village
(but not until October)
and marshes
with one or two lonely egrets.

I love write's like this, thanks for sharing
(a sombre ode
to our beloved blighty's
dispiritingly, deserted
coastlines:
'What remains
is the click, click, click
of the pebbles
in the shallow waters')
