C for Cliffs for Hiking in the Quest to be Healthy
the 12 given words:
eyes base rise follow garden while
kiss place near reach shame 
primal (early stage in evolutionary development)

As far as the eyes can see from a
distance reminiscent of those at Dover
from the base of the cliffs that rise
right to its top

It is engaging upon visitors who desire
to follow a hiking trail

In a relaxing mood one meanders
in a garden of greenery while kissed by
an ever welcoming whiff of cool sea
breeze ruffling one's turfs of loose hair

Such is the veracity of a haven vibrant
with flocks of gulls and birds on transit
a place near enough and within easy
reach from the mainland

It is a shame to pass off such a freedom
enjoyed by the primal food gatherers of old

  1. I spend a lot of my time walking along my local white cliffs from Beachy Head to Seaford, up and down the Seven Sisters, just along the coast from Dover. Winter or Summer, I adore it up there.

    1. Many many years ago, I was in the Territorial Army, and every so often we would weekend in Eastbourne. We had to go for a morning jog along the Seven Sisters, and one time it had snowed. The Corporal leading us told us to walk only where he walked as the snow was completely flat. I lagged back a bit to help someone and chose to take a short cut across to catch up. And sank to my waist in snow lol. I hated those mornings, but the view was beautiful
