Summer Seashore Treasures

summer seashore treasures

summer rocky beach
 seashells hide in frothy tides -
  barnacles scrape knees

basket filled with gifts
 sea life gone now but lives on -
  treasures of the sea

Dedicated to Anne Morrow Lindberg - Gift of the Sea

Warmest wishes always, my dear friend.. ~Susan Login to Reply Susan Ashley Date: 9/28/2020 4:46:00 PM Lol! We're both poets in crime and rhyme! :)) So cute!! Sam Kauffman Date: 9/28/2020 2:43:00 PM I love looking for shells. I especially love the nautilus and Percy's poem - "build thee more stately mansions, o my soul."
