Poem 124 of 230: FROM MORECAMBE - AUTUMN 2000
A long-and-wide red promenade,
Art depicting local fauna,
Pebbles preventing sand-shore fade,
Boats that may be modern-prawner,
Huge mudflats where birds and folks wade,
The far-shore tide-guides help shortcut,
Then, higher-and-higher-back laid,
Fells that peak where the Lakelands jut.
