The train from Paignton speeds through the tunnel
of the rock called The Parson and Clerk.
I am strolling to Teignmouth on a May Saturday
and pause to stare at all its glory:
red sandstone reflected on the mirror sand,
waves gently roll to sizzle on the shore,
it is a view that I peer at with awe.
The sky colours the sea blue,
grey-white clouds make cliffs seem on fire.
Oh, I have passed Coryton Cove
famous for the hole in the rock
and others like pocket pyramids
but it is this cliff that I adore the most
truly a gem...on the South Devon coast.
