Fish supper

A bungalow
Blown clean off a cliff
Lands on sand

At high tide the fishes come in in pairs
They stare wide-eyed at the TV and the red leather sofa
They play and chase through the curtains and the table legs
They nibble cautiously at food from the flung-open freezer

After supper they sit and sing by the fireside

Wonderful! I'd never have thought of coastal erosion as the tongue-in-cheek subject for a poem.
