Beachcombing

Early morning and I walk the shoreline of my waking mind, picking over what has been washed up, the tidal spoils dislodged from a dream, scattered memories, the flotsam of time. These are what I lay upon a page, the beach strewn litter from a throw away age and weathered sea shells that speak, murmur into a listening ear the incantations of the deep.

Wow! Amazing Paul - I just fell into this poem like someone sprinkled magic dust on me! How do you do that!? Love the atmospheric accuracy portrayed here, so precisely conveyed in such a concise way I feel baffled that it could occur from such a short poem. I love it! Fave.
