The White Cliffs

Toes curled around the white sharp edge Head peering over the steep slope Down down down falls the cliff Yet up up up soars my hope The rippling wind, the crashing waves White foam against white cliffs- so grand Furthermore a white sky dropping white snow A white dress, and a white rose in hand

I've been to France, but I was not in Calais where the White Cliffs can be seen in the distance across La Manche. Good wording and rhyming.
