Fine rock-pooling coast, this starfish on the toast,
The men in the crabbing boats, they cry.
Far across the harbour, and 'round the sandy cove,
The shepherd with his pipe and sheepy, drove.
Big cloud tumbling high, the a-mazing flying sky,
How the gulls are pillaging the town.
Fan faring daffodil-ly, trumpet-ingly small,
All along the bathing hut wall.
Far across the empty beach, the tide has left this world,
Old men in tweed find study there.
Holding whelks and periwinkles, tingling in his hand.
Little does he know they hold him too.
Fine rock-pooling coast, this starfish on the toast,
The men in the crabbing boats, they cry.
