Stage Lighting...
In the limelight, the isle sparkled
Like a floodlit theatrical stage,
Upon which Mousehole’s story would imminently unfold;
A chorus of gleaming, shrieking gulls
And dreaming, flaunting cormorants
Awaited the curious tale to be told;
A sea of harsh blue, grey and turquoise cold
Formed a stormy backdrop to the featured gold...
And a rainbow exited from stage left,
Arcing the restless hues of Mount’s Bay,
Bending towards somewhere east of Marazion,
Anchored by a vibrant pillar some miles away...

The sun highlighting St Clement’s Island off Mousehole, reminding me of a stage in a theatre.
The rainbow simply set the whole scene…
