healingwords: poetry for the soul

This is an image of the Rio Gorgos close to bursting in Xalo. The river has flooded in Xabia where the sea has devastated the coast, damaging many businesses and sea fronts. Storm Gloria is due to last another 24 hours, with heavy winds, torrential rain and snow on higher ground.

These fishing nets were piled by the boats in the port at Xabia and reminded me of the colours of piles of spices and fabrics in Oriental markets.  We ate sardines that had been freshly landed and walked in the mid day sun as it shone on the waves breaking in the bay.  © 2020 Jacqueline Knight Cotterill.  All rights reserved.
