Digging in the sand
Seeking delectable gems
Then steam and butter

The Universe in a Single Breath
Sometimes I feel
Like the universe swallowed me whole
Without even the discomfort of a burp
Like the universe swallowed me whole
Without even the discomfort of a burp
So I close my eyes
Breathe in deep
Until all that is fills me up
An Ancient Beach
I think of a beach
Half a billion years ago
Petrified in a moment of flux
Half a billion years ago
Petrified in a moment of flux
And the creatures
Which skittered there
Having barely left the sea
I think of a wave
And the littlest living things
Awash in the foaming ocean
Not so unlike
The littlest living things
Swishing over my feet in the surf
Twice a Day an Island
This little bit of rock
Twice a day an Island
Momentary wilderness
Beyond an urban beach

Aqua and Azure ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #134
On another day
The storms would come
To whip the sea
Into delightful fury
The storms would come
To whip the sea
Into delightful fury
But today
Though the wind be high
In the lee of the rocks
A delightful calm
I love them both
The battering grey
The aqua and azure
Though…
Eastern Glow
While others gaze
Upon low lying sun
I turn my eye
Unto opposing sky
And glory in
The subtler shades
Which vibrance
Though far less pronounced
Such bare honest glow
With its gracious tones
In soft pastel
Restrained
Does not shout out
But whispers clear
“I am a sight
Held no less dear”
Upon low lying sun

Missing the Sea
It’s a funny thing
That I live just one block
From the ocean
Often times smell the salt
And the tide
Through an open window
That I live just one block
From the ocean
Often times smell the salt
And the tide
Through an open window
And yet
I miss the sea
An urban inlet
Is not a wide sandy beach
On a limitless sea
With breakers vaulting salt spray
Into the atmosphere
Clouds Whispering
A rocky beach
A sleepy sea
A sulfur sky
And cobalt high
A sleepy sea
A sulfur sky
And cobalt high
Clouds whispering
Breathe in the air
My body sings
With the beauty
Of existence

The beach
Sunshine and sand
Wind and waves
Blankets and bikinis
Children and sand castles
Umbrellas and Ray Bans
Chesterman
Not quite
Such a beach
Endless Breakers
The wind licks spray
From endless breakers
Entering the bay
From endless breakers
Entering the bay
The clouds
A battery of waves
Roll across the sky
I lose myself
In the rumbling hiss
Of wind and white water
Taste the salty air
On my lips
Breathing deeply
