Shoreditch

 

Strolling through Shoreditch

shutter working overtime

utterly vibrant.

First day

 

Dawning of a new

era; so beautiful in

her school uniform.

Lobster pots

 

Newquay harbour wall

where untidy heaps of pots

are left out to dry.

Secondary school

 

No more packed lunches

thank heavens; reclaiming time

lost from our mornings.

Bicycle

 

Idyllic cottage

where I learned to ride a bike

never forgotten.

Cornish skies

 

Cornish skies, deep blue.

Ocean reflected, absorbed;

waves of clouds breaking.

Body boarding

 

We four together

on a wave – mum, daughter, son.

dad; it’s a keeper!

Fishing

 

The happiest day

spending time together on

the rocks in the sun.
