Light Breaks Water On The North Sea
This is for the Vocal "Light Breaks Water" Challenge
Introduction
I usually limit myself to one entry per challenge, but on the train up to Scotland today, the sun was shining on the North Sea, so I thought that would make a perfect villanelle for the challenge.

Introduction For this challenge, I will use the Sestina form that you can read about here. Blame Vocal because it is on the list of poetry forms and is my third Sestina. I use the same rhyme for every line because the switching of the words would make it impossible, unless I decided to go non-rhyming, but I always make things difficult for myself.

Great combination of photography and poetry and I love the North East Coast. I was at the southern opening of the North Sea at the weekend: Margate, dreaming of all the wonderful places connected by that sea.
Lovely trip.
I adore this poem mate. Your photographs really tie the piece together. Along with that youโve got a really memorable way with words. You can almost imagine this being recited to music with a montage of your photos in the background. Gorgeous โค๏ธ
Your photos complemented your poem sooo beautifully!
This is beautiful ๐ I love your photos too!
Simply beautiful in words and pictures. Good job.
