The Costa Blanca! Skies without a stain!
Eric and I at almond-blossom time
Came here and fell in love with it. The climb
Under the pine trees, up the dusty lane
To Casa Kenilworth, brought back again
Our honeymoon, when I was in my prime
Good-bye democracy and smoke and grime{:}
Eric retires next year. We're off to Spain!
We’ve got the perfect site beside the shore
Owned by a charming Spaniard, Miguel
Who says that he is quite prepared to sell
And build our Casa for us and, what's more
Preposterously cheaply. We have found
Delightful English people living round
The Costa Blanca SHE was written by Sir John Betjeman.
