Whilst waiting for the Surf Train

I noticed a traveller sitting

Under a black parasol

He was heavily dressed

Which was unusual

As the day was warm

Wilma

On arrival I went straight to the beach

Which was mid-tide in low water

This encouraged the swimmers

Who like me were also combing the beach

The winter storms had been bountiful

And many interesting items were found

I soon found a small glazed pot

Once used for face cream

It was over a century old
