Kayaking

On the beach in mid-September
Sitting on the still warm sea
Paddling out ‘cross flat-calm water
Happy as a sandman, me

To the buoy, the outer marker
Waves are choppier out here
Behind, the land, a distant ribbon
Deceptive though as still quite near

Bobbing on the waves I ponder
From the water, perfect bliss
Looking out to Sussex coastline
What in life can better this?
