There is a natural spring amongst the rocks

At the southern end of Nash Beach

It is very popular with beach users

And therein lies its problem

As many people either wash their hair

Or soap down under this shower

Leaving soapy deposits which stain the beach

And at times run into the shallows

A wooden bin had been provided

So that the waste plastics were not discarded

But this facility was often ignored and plastic bottles

Were frequently found in the sea and on the beach

I knew that God was aware of this problem

And it came as no surprise to me

When the spring suddenly dried up

And a peddler began selling cheap relics nearby
