The Most Beautiful Morning Light
Kingsdown, Deal, Kent.
Visit collection: Beyond the PebblesWhen the plug is pulled in the bay
and the sea appears to drain away
take an early morning walk across
the shore with the whitest chalk.
Stroll beyond the rolling pebbles and
the groynes that reach onto the levels
Skirt around the sandy pools towards
the sea that sparkles like jewels.
Watch seabirds stalk the shallow waters
Listen as the waves gently ebb and falter
Amble back as the sun's path grows bright
Enjoy the most beautiful morning light.

When the spring tides are low take a walk in the bay and enjoy the most spectacular morning light. Scaffold poles and old train wheels litter the chalk beds at low tides and have become home to various sea life. I have been told they are the remnants of old sea defences.
