Poem

Clouds floating across the azure blue sky like sailing ships over   serene sea on a sunny afternoon
 Two barefooted boys beachcomb the warm sandy beach leaving footprints behind 

  Unaware that there is another world around them
listening only to the resonant sonorousness sounds of the sea
cold sea air rolling inland ruffled  their hair 

 Calm waves silently creep leaving a slight spume over the golden tanned sand
then slowly drawing a breath,  taking their footprints back into its turquoise depth  

  The boys seem to take pleasure  
daydreaming  of   visionary fantasy of hopes
scanning the sand  for treasures 
that has washed up upon the shore

  Perhaps a treasure map in a bottle written long ago
or a carved figure mounted on a pirate ship’s bow 
cocoon in the sand only shown when the waves roll back 

  Soon the sun will draw it curtains close
and the night will yawn a whiff of cool air
exposing its sublime moon 

 Two weary boys walk away from the beach leaving footprints behind
carrying  a handful of  seashells and stories to tell

The painting above the poem is an oil painting of my son and nephew painted by me, I call it, " Beachcombing".
