Ridgewalker…
Windswept light showers cascaded, randomly
Skirting the surrounding hills and hovering
Above the distant sea. And the evening sunlight
Peered through smothering, bustling clouds, some charcoal
Grey, others pallid peach below those of varying blues.
Trees, buffeted by gusts, tousled haphazardly,
Leaning and straining, twisting and lowering
Towards yonder sea, as gulls across the valley took flight.
Through lush green grazing fields, pairs of pheasants stole
And over the ridge a late evening rainbow revealed its hues…

Staithes, North Yorkshire…
Windy, threatening but colourful clouds, occasional showers, pairs of pheasants and finally a weak rainbow…
On a ridge near Boulby Mine…
