Southern Comfort

The sun’s last dying ray,
Marking the end of the day,
Waves, echoing along the beach,
Stars, for now, safely out of reach,
And, as the last gull cries,
My comfort is found,
In a bag of hot, salted, vinegar soaked,
Crinkley French Fries,

About this poem:
It may be a bit of an English thing, but wandering along the beach with a bag of chips in the evening is hard to beat......lol....Andrew...xxx

you shared a nice brief memory - and reminded me of something we used to do in africa...G&T on the verandah watching the sun go down.

Oh Andrew149....how I smiled. Thanks for the memory, though in 1977, it wasn't french fries, it was rough cut...but so right, nothing like it..at places like Hastings, Deal etc...Love the poem. Niah9cheering

i'd give up that bag of...chips (grrr...fries, to this yankee, and drop the French. chips=crisps! lol) to be able to reach those stars. that's probably just me, though. lovely picture you painted here, andrew.
