The white froth washed ashore to the sandy beach, leaving only the foam outline of the waves behind as a remembrance of where the last wave once was. Two palm trees, connected to a common base, reclined to one…

a kubo, which is a small cottage, and the beach few miles further, it was absolutely stunning. We all went inside and unpacked our luggages.

I watched the waves softly crash against the rocks and smiled at the sound the waves were…

It’s a little known place that requires one to time their trek perfectly with the tides as the walk takes hours and the beach can quickly become engulfed by the ocean. It’s almost like the land of the lost, boats and giant buoys wash up onto the shore and the beach is littered with perfect shells and sun bleached sand dollars. Giant ghost crabs…
4.4.3 Analysis As always Wordsworth draws his inspiration from nature, this time from a beautiful evening he shared with his young daughter.
