Twilight - Chesil Beach

You sneaked up on me, in the evening light

After a day spent trudging Chesil Beach

For unfound fossils and renewed insight.

You sneaked up on me.

Just as I thought that I'd begun to reach

That point where nothing ever would be right

You transformed the darkening bay to teach

Me, through every nuance of twilight,

That anything from indigo to peach

Is mine, if only I'll accept the sight.

You sneaked up on me.
