Poem 163 of 230: ON A CLEAR DAY - SUMMER 2001
Far - the Lakelands behind Blackpool Tower;
Well-ebbed - the ocean and estuary;
Odd - a sand-digger and lorries that cross;
Tonal - the flats left by tidal power;
Patched - the grasses surviving the big tides;
Plonked - the driftwood sprouted in other lands;
Clinging - the coastal flora to the dunes;
Busy - the bees and folks on Southport rides.
