6 of 12 in the ‘My very best’ series
Lightest of breeze, Sea in the air Sounds of children playing down there Green on the shingle, Cabbage White Occasional bird in lazy flight Blue of the sky, blue of the sea White wispy clouds, soft buzzing bee Shimmering distantly Worthing pier Sometimes hazy, sometimes clear Moored on horizon, fishing boats Whilst nearer in shore swimmers float Out to the east is Brighton’s sprawl High in the air a seagull’s call Perfect now the weather’s fine Lancing Beach in summertime
