Foghorn

The foghorn blows
Across the bay
A mournful song
Reverberates
Across shining water
Skipping like a stone
It seems to tell
Its story through its tone
Of days spent lonely
Lost to love
A melody in minor key
A single note
The foghorn blows

    We don’t have a foghorn in Fleetwood. The council just pays me to eat chilli on foggy nights instead.
