[bodytext] => Through fields of soft soft summer fruit And other crop yields on route With ‘pick your own’ on wooden signs And wind turbines passing and waving in unison Standing tall and grand with their planet saving plans All set in uniform lines across the land Through pretty sleepy villages Composed of chocolate box cottages Full of charm and pleasant calm and mostly un-alarmed With front gardens chock full Of colourful roses and delightful daisies And a horse in the paddock that all day grazes The air starts smelling of the sea Crisp, salty and pollution-free Telling me - it’s just there ahead of me Where seagulls are chattering Squawking and talking in discordant tones Cluttering and clattering over leftover bones Sand dunes are to walk in and roam And the sea's repetitive tidal tune Is subject to the range in moods of the moon Clouds billowing and bulbous are blown Up with luminous light where the sun’s bulb From it’s socket glows and over-flows Sailing in the sky are kites flying high Gliding and riding the air beneath the sun’s stare Those holding the kite-tails pull with all their might and dare The sea-front shop sells buckets and spades For sand castles to be made but not saved While others like to wade through the waves Or collect seashells in all shapes and shades to enjoy Flat or curled, long or twirled - like toys hurled Out from the sea along with seaweed it has disagreed with On the horizon are fishing boats and ice-bergs floating Melting and vanishing before my very eyes like little global warming lies Bloating the sea so that sea levels rise, rise and rise… [comments] => 2 [counter] => 256 [topic] => 18 [informant] => JaneAirPoetry [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Holiday Poetry )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
