Broken Foam

Paddle hard in youth's whirling foam.
Wait for the perfect wave, 
ride it onto the soft land.
It's in the blood to ride fast and smooth
in the sweet-salty sunrise of our youth.

Celebrate the day
Sip a glass of sweet champagne.

When the sun sets, who'll be by your side?
When the rogue cracks your board
When the champagne runs dry.

What a phenomenal write, Anthony. You know already,you are one of my favorites. I do think you should publish your poems online and sell them. You are hard hitting, can be soft, too and are 100% unique. I do mean that. Stay away from publishers. Quora.com may have ideas in that area. Panagiota
