Driftwood on the Channel shore
Sculptures on the beach
Nature as the artist
Revealed by tidal reach
Trees stripped out of Severn woods
Whirled along by gales
Mighty forces here in play
Beside which Man just pales
Beneath a blue and cloudless sky
Detritus of the storms
Left as in a gallery
Delightful in their forms.
