Im Looking Forward To
I’m looking forward to
letting my bare feet sink in silt
the waves weighing me down
salt sea leaving me breathless
I’m looking forward to
the sun bleaching my hair
heating my arms, legs, scalp
and the coconut scent of sunscreen
I’m looking forward to
sand between my toes
shifting, drifting, flipping
and coating my shins
I’m looking forward to
the playful splashing of the sea
watching kids make moats &
build and destroy sandcastles
I’m looking forward to
looking over my shoulder
for alligators and snapping turtles
on the loose, near every canal
I’m looking forward to
the tropical sips and eats
the lightning that strikes
right in front of my vehicle
I’m looking forward to
Florida highs and lows
The Mean Girls musical
My grand in the lead
