Sinuous Summer

sinuous seaside sand
softly shifts smooth stones
seaweeds stinky sigh

winsome waves woven
wearing wondrous weave
westerly wind whistles

sunlit sparkling stars
seashore serenades sunshine
sopranos singing

driftwood’s dozing dreams
distant diamond disappears
deep dusky day dies

John Watt Date: 7/30/2020 9:17:00 AM Jeanne, this photograph looks like one of yours, is it a new one? You have captured some gorgeous summer scenes with your luscious, lovely words in alluring alliteration. I'm wondering if the sopranos singing are mermaids or sirens? Loved your line "winsome waves woven" as I am a big fan of wave watching. Very endearing! Login to Reply Jeanne Mcgee Date: 7/30/2020 4:39:00 PM Yes, it's one of the photographs I sell in my Mexican gallery. Mermaids! Yes, the waves are calling me every day!

Login to Reply Jeanne Mcgee Date: 7/30/2020 4:41:00 PM Buenos Dias Senor Burl...it was suppose to be for the haiku alliteration contest but I struggle for a week with nothing coming...then yesterday it just flowed as I sat on the beach! missed the contest but still produced a lovely poem.
