Once a Summer

Once a summer Like a beached whale the rowboat lies on its side its bottom had been tarred and the aroma mingled with ozone of the sea. When the tide turns the boat will float again and look refreshed. Seen from the wooden pier the sea is crystal clear looks emerald. Small crabs and tiny fish feed in the shallow. When the sea slowly inhales and exhales pebbles softly fizz. The sky is the sea´s lover, doomed to forever be apart. The sea pulls me closer it is hard to resist no be absorbed by its beauty.
