St Michael’s Mount lies in grey blue turmoil Great-tit Jackdaw One for sorrow Football to beach Brassica scented before sea scents assail Trenow Cove Thrush and wren Achingly lovely song mingled with crashing waves Robin and gulls A Snowy Egret, Oyster Catchers and Sandpipers greet me on the shore Wagtails Sand-Hoppers Salt air Minor erosions by force majeure The Mount subsumed in sea fret Wrens whirr a protest as we head home A robin carols from the ivy Gulls play with the breeze The landscape feels ancient Legends and sea dogs fill the imagination King Jackdaw crowns his outcrop A Curlew flies by #drawingonnature
