Geese and God

I remember all the humorous things   we did
Peering into windows lit by lamps
Climbing cliffs  then chased by geese and dog

Walking down  from  Redcar,sea so still
 After Saltburn Pier, the cliffs high jump
I remember all the  funny things   we did

Wandering Whitby in a sea grey smog
Eating a pork pie cut into lumps
Climbing cliffs  then chased by geese and dog

Old Hunstanton ,white sands where we’d sit
The wild spikes of the gorse  spread out  unclamped
I remember all the   colours,scents and that

I feel the joy inside my heart is lit
Woe  is leavened by old nature’s stamp
Climbing  high  then chased through mud by dogs

 

We see in shadows shades are not so stark
In Studland Bay   astonished by skylarks
I remember all the  humour  and the love
Climbing cliffs then caught by geese and God
