Sometimes
A moment
Comes together
A moment
Comes together
Unplanned
Unforeseen
Unforeseeable
Sometimes
The magic
Simply arises

Twilight Transformation
It is a simple pier
On a rocky beach
The large stones worn smooth
By the rhythm of tides
And uncountable waves
On a rocky beach
The large stones worn smooth
By the rhythm of tides
And uncountable waves
Not a beach
For laying out towels
Basking in the sun
Building castles
In daylight
Pretty enough
As I drive by
Golden sunrise
Like a gold bar
Perched on horizon’s edge
The promise of a new day rising
A wealth of potential
Infinite possibility

She Danced
She danced
As if everyone was watching
And all they wanted
Was to see her dance
As if everyone was watching
And all they wanted
Was to see her dance
She danced
As if every word she’d ever spoken
Could be translated
To a gesture, a swirl, or a twirl
She danced
And all I knew was
I wanted to be there on the dance floor
With her, now and forever
Castles ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #44
A long shallow beach in the summertime
Children splash and laugh
Swim and frolic
Lay out on towels
In the hot sun
Browning young skin
On the fine grey sand
Children splash and laugh
Swim and frolic
Lay out on towels
In the hot sun
Browning young skin
On the fine grey sand
I the child
Dig down into the beach
Find the water
Swirl sand into slurry
Lift it out
Dripping from fingertips
Wash Away the Tears
In the time it takes
For the flood to wane
And the wave to recede
Back to its ocean source
For the flood to wane
And the wave to recede
Back to its ocean source
I will wash away
The tears of my last failure
And gather myself up
To have another go
Like Icing
On the approach
I smell the sea salt
Heavy in the onshore wind
I smell the sea salt
Heavy in the onshore wind
I know the waves
Will be breaking
Far off the shore
Carrying their foam
Up onto the beach
Under A Wan Sun
On a cool day
Under a wan sun
Sintering through the cloud
Throwing speculars here
A weak shadow there
Under a wan sun
Sintering through the cloud
Throwing speculars here
A weak shadow there
A young man throws sticks to his dog
Which gleefully, gaspingly
Retrieves them
A beach without umbrellas
There are thousands of miles of beach
Where no parasols are erected
To shade blankets
Coolers
And the sunburned
Where no parasols are erected
To shade blankets
Coolers
And the sunburned
The crow, the fence and the bridge
As I approach
The crow jeers
CAW CAW CAW!
Mocking bird
The crow jeers
CAW CAW CAW!
Mocking bird
One more step
