Glencoe.

Climbers call from coloured ropes
silent spider descends
on silken thread

Antlers clash on mating duel
waiting doe slakes thirst
in dragonflies pool

Blunted are the sharp peaks
by Winter snow

Dartmoor.

A horsebox slows
traffic to a trot

Lie in Haytor's shadow
with cider and cheese

Letter boxing
no emails found

Beach.

Seaweed sushi
washed by
morning tide

Cream teas cream suits
double cream on lapels

A deckchair
defies assembly

Glencoe, Dartmoor, beach - three of my favourite places so this was always going to be a hit with me. One to read and savour again and again. Cream teas and seaweed sushi in particular....not too keen on cider but I'd give it a go with cheese.

Thanks seashore. Appreciate your support. Go on, try a cider with or without cheese. Regards

A nice set of images these. I particularly like the deckchair one - those damned things always bite my fingers.

Thanks for reviewing Dynamaso. re the deckchairs, it happens all the time. Quite amusing to watch, even worse if there is an audience.

I read this before I went away scozen and thought I'd commented but it's gone so i'll say it again - really good. Bit of a duffer with this tech stuff. :-)
