Sketchbook

Here is a sketch from Souter Lighthouse in South Shields.



This inspired a poem:

Sentinal

Skylark sentinals
On high

Swallows swooping
Skimming the grass

Daisies dotting the
Smooth baize of green

on cue
Lighthouse, silent

A ton of steel on silver mercury
Waiting to turn

Victorian perfection
Hot scones await
