three beautiful sounds

the cacophony of an espresso machine
in a tiled & smoke-filled bar
with twenty five spaniards
all shouting at the television

the hiss of the breaking wave
rushing back down the pebbles
on brighton beach

the ear-splitting merriment of
a feasting flock of sparrows

... and a fourth

the turbo-charged,
window-rattling,
organ-loft storm
of George Collinson's voice
in the middle of a joyous rant !

this red boat was just swinging around it's buoy as the tide turned to ebb

that's the same cloud as in the picture of hurlingham below, moving on, as they do

at one time, back in 1928, the land over there was flooded to a depth of six feet

i suppose there'll be a next time
