The sky is boasting
its best Summer blue,
bees fill the air
with their nectar-laden drone.
One lone skylark
sings its way into the sky,
spiralling up, up, up,
to drop stone-like
in a swift dive
to its nest below.
Through a gap in the hills
the sea, sun polished,
salts the sharp breeze
as it spills onto soft sand.
Gulls haunting cries
reverberate from rock faces
that cling like clams to cliff sides.
The tang of abandoned seaweed
adds its unmistakable fragrance
altogether making this
a day to relive in dreams.
