Four gulls

Four gulls flew in
from the fog on the Tyne
up here in Newcastle
Knew they were mine

Here to welcome me
to this wonderful city
which I have to leave
today, more’s the pity

And if I thought…

And if I thought the sunset view
was a lovely sight
Just imagine my reaction
when I saw it later at night

Room with a view

 

So, the view from my room
overlooking the Tyne
is spectacular as ever
in the evening sunshine

Back to Newcastle

On my way back to Newcastle
today on the train
I’m prepared for the cold
but it looks more like rain

Five bridges

 

Gleams the sun
on slow Tyne
Five bridges reflected
the moment, mine
