The Little Boats
We are fast approaching the longest night and what better way to embrace this than to visit some festive lights? The little boats in Ramsgate harbour always put on a splendid display bringing some festive cheer to warm your heart and make you smile.
Visit collection: Wonderful BritainBag of chips and not a gull in sight
an evening stroll to the harbour lights.
There's a nip in the air and sudden
blasts of wind, we are wrapped up
warm against a cold that stings.
We casually stroll the harbour arm
taking our time, completely charmed
and as twilight darkens into the night
the festive lights glow bright.
It warms our cockles but not our toes
or the tip of a now red shiny nose.
Hot chocolate with sprinkles before
we make tracks, we turn and wave
and the little boats twinkle back.
