My First Iambic Metre

Inspred by reading “The Ode Less Travelled” – Stephen Fry. This is an excellant intoduction to writing poetry.

One time I looked across the empty bay
The little boats had simply gone away
In place were buoys atop the evening tide
And then afar the sails wind full I spied
With tack and jibe it looked to be such fun
To sail away towards the setting sun.
