four red and gold books on a beach at night
on a night with a high tide...
and
a sudden unexpected surge of surf!
(I run but am caught - wet to my knees, my boots fill with sea water and sand)
four books washed away!
I scan the sand with my tiny torch...
I find
one...
two....
three...
four...
I collect the wet and wretched tomes and head for home
squelching as I go...
