Bottle Cap In the Sand
Bottle cap in the sand.
forsaken barren beach.
Towel colors once grand
diminished by sun’s bleach.
Tropical paradise
long left barren by man.
Hurricane a surprise,
deserted without plan.
Collapsed plastic beach balls
strewn among the seaweeds.
Once bright the eye recalls,
but now the sight recedes.
Hibiscus trees deflexed,
entwined with pale, pinched palms.
Verdant life springs forth vexed.
The damaged, begging alms.
Flora and fauna rise;
slow repristination.
Beach in rousing reprise,
resplendent salvation.
Utopia restored;
Nature’s tacit accord.
