Caught a last glimpse on the river at dusk of the sun as it ended the day the evening came fast now the daytime was past and I couldn't expect it to stay So I watched as the river down there in the gloom slowly turned on the tide as the night time set in meeting there with my grin which like it was silent and wide

Slowly dusk descended
and it got really hard to see
but the birdsong in the evening sky
was great for Sal and me
And though we’ve said it here before
we really love this place
and though a broken record-like
it is our saving grace
Without it I am quite convinced
stir-crazy we would be
so it’s a special privilege
this field to weekly see
And when we left this evening
night had bled into the day
which made it kind of special
in a really lovely way

The silver sea lay still and calm
as dusk gathered round about
and on the shingle gazing
we watched it as the light went out
The evening faded into night
as it crept in from the west
A perfect spectacle for us
on the beach where it is best

Sea shines as a mirror
As night time gathers round
The breeze the faintest whisper
Waves break without a sound
Dark line on the horizon
the night time gathers haste
and silvering close into shore
runs fast as it is chased
Spellbound, we pause with wonder
Enraptured there we stand
Watching mirrored evening vanish
quietly, hand in hand
