I see a lighthouse in the distance
It's surrounded by sea
The seagulls are singing
They're happy to be free
As the windfarm whistles
The tunes of the day
Lots of people in cars
Not wanting to play
There is thunder in the distance
And a grey mist descends
The pebbles on the beach
Each follows a friend
The incoming tide
Makes the sand seem alive
The shimmering Sun is going down
And the Red Rocks look brown
As someone asks the way to town
Whilst being watched by the two faced Clown.
First hand account of a seashore witnessing a lovely sunset with its colorful impact on the ground. This beautiful scene captured with nuances. Thanks a lot, Tom, for sharing with us.
Beautiful poem, it feels timeless, I love it! Thank you for sharing.

Beautiful, simply beautiful and enchanting................................
