Taking Tea at Torcross <\/b><\/p>\n
On an English afternoon Beatrice and Edward were taking tea at an outdoor caf\u00e9 in the coastal village of Torcross<\/p>\n
The day was cool with an easterly breeze<\/p>\n
On the deep horizon two schooners were passing<\/p>\n
Out of Estonia<\/p>\n
Edwards was watching them through his binoculars<\/p>\n
Beatrice was writing in a red notebook<\/p>\n
Those schooners are bound for the Azores you know <\/i><\/p>\n
I think not <\/i><\/p>\n
Why?<\/i><\/p>\n
Because they have just travelled from the Azores <\/i><\/p>\n
Then why are they travelling in a westerly direction? <\/i><\/p>\n
All schooners travel in a westerly direction it is the first rule of the sea <\/i><\/p>\n
I cannot say I agree with that<\/i><\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n
The Polish Projectionist<\/b><\/p>\n
Invited me into the projection room at his cinema<\/p>\n
I inspected the equipment<\/p>\n
And noted that it was in fine working order<\/p>\n
The projectionist invited me to meet his family<\/p>\n
It was only when we were driving through the cornfields near his home that I discovered that I had left my sandals at the cinema<\/p>\n
We returned to Tallinn where I retrieved my footwear<\/p>\n
Later in the afternoon I met his family<\/p>\n
He had a son and two daughters<\/p>\n
One of his daughters was only three inches high<\/p>\n
Although she had obviously reached maturity<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Wonders of the Machine <\/b><\/p>\n
Yellow lichens<\/p>\n
Turning orange<\/p>\n
Denote maturity<\/p>\n
Henry informed me of this fact<\/p>\n
As we travelled towards Tallinn<\/p>\n
In his speedboat<\/p>\n
He was wearing white jeans and a pale blue shirt<\/p>\n
Marie was sunbathing next to me<\/p>\n
She was reading a book<\/p>\n
It was called<\/p>\n
The Wonders of the Machine<\/p>\n
