These are all of my poems which are about, or which include mention of the seaside. I have also included a brief description of the poem and the poetic and/or figurative writing techniques that it includes, simply to make it easier for you to select a poem for your purposes.
This is a very simple poem that I wrote when I remembered holding a shell to my ear as a child and believing that I could hear the sound of the seaside inside it.
A poem doesn’t need to be purely descriptive: use your own experiences, thoughts or associations as ideas for things to say in your poem.
