LIVEING ON THE ISLE OF THANET KENT U K

Liven on geographically on an island
Separated from the mainland
By whats left of the
Watson Channel
Separates Thanet from Kent
Isle Thanet lays upon chalk
Thanet has chalk cliffs
Those cliffs offdon slips
Crash down like a slice of white chocolate cake
With added traditional brown chocolate - soil
Green marzipan - grass
Slips slides down to the beech in to the sea below

Rain fulls on to the chalk clefts
The chalk soaks up all the rain
A sudden freeze
Just has sudden
Just has suddenly the thawing
Cliffs expand more rain
Again a sudden freeze
Sudden thawing
Cliff's crack slips and fulls
Air white has snow

Stand on the cliff top at Pegwell Bay look to the right
There you can see my home town of Ramsgate
Note that the town is not so far from the town
Note the remains of a house that once had amazing views
Go down to sands take a walk along the cliff bottom
Note the cliff slips over the years
Note that the town not so far away
Note climate worming climate changing
Note Ramsgate town in no time soon will be under the sea!
Note the locals are not bothered so it appears!
