This month’s (August) poems were all about the sea-To The Sea by Philip Larkin, Sea Fever and Cargoes by John Maesfield.

Chrissie’s moody seascape is inspired by sunset off Llanddulas, Rachel captured Larkin’s description of a traditional paddling and rockpooling day out, while Menna (centre) was inspired by Maesfield’s To The Sea, as was Trish with these watercolour sailboats.

The photo, meanwhile, is of a driftwood sign that appeared during lockdown, overlooking the sea off Conwy Morfa.
