POEM 6

We heard it on the radio 

that it's gonna be a scorcher 

so I put it to my husband

my grown up sons and daughter 


Let’s go to the sea side

and get some fresh sea air

they looked up in amazement 

and genuinely looked scared“


I can’t take my iPad 

with all that gritty sand”

“I won’t get any Wi-Fi 

you just don’t understand?”


We overcame that hurdle

when I mentioned paying rent

they really made an effort 

and a lovely time we spent


We had a little paddle

a stroll along the pier

It’s just a shame the whole U.K.

had shared the same idea
