fly over me,
brilliant white
tail streamers
trail on
ozone scented breeze
silver eels
hang
equally from
brightly
coloured pointed beaks.
Harsh "kerrick"
repeated squawks
echo across
pebble patterned sand
as your
jagged
returning flights
with
comical scruffy crests,
fly over me,
Swallows of the sea.

'Swallows of the Sea'....a perfect description of the Terns, Ruth, with a splendid photo to accompany your poem! So agile are the Terns and a delight to watch as they dive for food for their young!
Two super poems added to your blog!
The photo took some taking as it was blowing a gale at the time!
They are beautifuly agile and certainly a delight to observe!
Thanks for taking the time to comment my friend.
