Water, Water, Everywhere but not a Drop to Drink by ladymagpie

Water, Water, Everywhere but not a Drop to Drink

The sun came out today so I made my way down to the mighty River Severn, yes I was geocaching near a church on the river bank. It may have been sunny but as you can see from the reeds there was a brisk breeze blowing off the water.

It reminded me of the rime from the Ancient Mariner (Samual Taylor Coleridge 1797-98):

Water, water, every where,
And all the boards did shrink;
Water, water, every where,
Nor any drop to drink.

Lady Magpie goes all poetic. View with the dark surround.
Well I did not know who wrote that nor any more than the drop to drink so thanks and Fav Great picture too as far as the lens can see

I remember the poem so well - school stuff! Nice catch of the wind really - but glad I can't feel it!
