We have been sorting out  some old papers and found this poem sent to us by Margaret, we think its worth sharing.

A CORNISH BAY

It was evening’s time of day,

When we arrived at Harlyn Bay;

Having left work and city stress,

What   awaited? We could but guess.

 

The setting sun had stayed awake,

Sinking slowly – for our sake?

With burnished hue this perfect orb,

The sea, the sky – its rays absorb.

 

I waken with the breaking day,

I look eastward across the bay;

And with the light of morning dawn,

I see the springtime sun reborn,

 

Here I have found peace and beauty,

Free from cares and city duty;

The days, the hours, need no measure,

Blessed am I with timeless leisure.
