Some skillfull ryming at work here Ernestine. As usual with you, none of it seems forced and there is a real naturalness to the flow of this poem.
Such a peaceful poem, Ernestine, set in one of our most beautiful resorts. With the sun shining into my living room right now I can feel the atmosphere even more. But your words have said it all. What our for those crabs! Love, Fran xx
I love the Englishness that comes from your poetry Ernestine, It makes me feel Good! ! ! I like the style you have used here, The two rhymes in one line, it really carries the poem, and the flow is just right, I also like your observations, the B&B's holdiday apartments, a lonely lighthouse, and much more, I particually like the line 'and salty winds beat distant waves, to the caves, it evokes a nice clear mental picture. Lovely work Ernestine. best wishes Vincent
