SEA BAT, PORTH CHAPEL... (My third poem about Porth Chapel beach, Cornwall...)

 Sea Bat, Porth Chapel…



White sea bat rises menacingly,

Wings threatening,

Lifting

And towering

Over retreating surf,

Spewing weed and maritime driftwood,

Like chaff thrown into the wind…


Foaming predator swoops hungrily,

Wingspan massive,

Oppressive,

Aggressive

On passive prey,

Devouring effluent and human flotsam,

Like invaders purge, undisciplined…


Pete Ray



The surf looked like a fantastic, wing-like sea 

creature powering its butterfly-type stroke to slash onto Porth Chapel beach, West Cornwall…
