The sun rises

Nature’s light show plays out before me

Daylight reveals highways of the sea glistening on the horizon

Dover to Calais ferries dart between the wake of mammoth container ships

Walkers processionally pass by on their way to The Cliffs

Few pay me attention

An elderly woman with a walking stick stops

She leans on the convenient railings

Bidding me “good morning”

A thousand years or more it’s lived so they say, at least

Centuries before it became guardian for the deceased

These ancient builders of the church all knew

The magical and deadly power of the yew

Locked deep inside the secret of immortality

Pure poison within the yew, result fatality

Sitting in quiet contemplation, “tell me fine tree

A thousand years lived, what did you ...

To walk in the cleansing summer rain

Nirvana for humans and parched ground

Pine trees, roses, the damp earth

And a thousand other scents

All at once nature ‘s fragrances

Teasing senses with their beauty

Thoroughly soaking wet and caring not

Simple joys of being alive…

Would it cease to exist? I wo...

Which style of clothes we choose to wear

Are those designer labels on show there?

Or supermarket jeans with matching top

Did that bag come from an online shop?

Got to dress-up that look, make it “you”

Designer a must, branded training shoe

Myriad of gadgets await our pleasure

How exactly to enjoy our leisure?

Binned phone, new model pride of place

How is it better, ...

I would look from my window yonder

Untamed nature

Wild

Waves crashing upon beach

Heart of winter

Gales pounding

Residing here

Pioneering buccaneer

Safe in my sanctuary

Seasons change

I would share this transient place

My island

Wild

Waves lap gently upon beach

Heart of summer

Warming breeze

Growing here

Deeply see and hear

Safe in my ...

Jack In The Green awakens from his slumber

Spring is upon us, nature in all her wonder

Gaze in awe of rebirth, renewal, fertility

Stood deep in the forest, deep within tranquillity

Robin Goodfellow his mischief to perform

Souring milk, trampling crop circles from fields of corn

Tripping those who into the green wood unwary tread

Laughing, yet another traveller away from p...
