Turreted and stately
Sheltered from the oceans edge
Its quays and ancient places
Telling history unread
Of castles, chains and Frenchy
Of battles, fire and dread
Streets of crackling muskets
All make Fowey the place to head
Marazion in the sunlight
Ochre lichen on slate roofs
Saffron sands with pebbles dusted
Fringe the bay the waves chase to
Island mount carved from the granite
Set apart in azure blue
Clouds of cotton passing over
Herring gulls patrolling through
Up the shore the nets lie tangled
Mixed with seaweed in a line
White horses beat the beach
Elated
Here I sit
The storm abated
Heaven is not hard to find
egalbohen's conversations
Turreted and stately Sheltered from the oceans edge Its quays and ancient places Telling history unread Of castles, chains and Frenchy Of battles, fire and dread Streets of crackling muskets All make Fowey the place to head
