crescent moon

sliver of gold

hovers over

clouds of pink

in wide expanse

of bluest blue

as sun sets

on august night.

 

great day out

meeting friends

sussex coast

fish’n’chip lunch

seaside café

stony beach

walking the dog

concreted prom

sharing stories

exchanging views

invited back

holiday home

converted barn

cake and coffee

many laughs

wine or beer

salted cashews

over all too soon.

 

crescent moon

spotted again

through tall trees

darkening skies

just a sliver

gold turned silver

as she heralds

journey home.
