I was born in Midford in Somerset There used to be a railway there I now live in Greece with Alba And photograph sunrises and sunsets Which I sell on to our visitors

Visited the sea They were amazed At its colour Texture and mood I met them We shared a coffee In a nude cafe Opposite a church Beneath a hill Today was the L>O<N>G<E>S<T>D<A>Y We arranged to meet in a year
