The eye of the storm
Huge fluffy clouds began to form over

against the rocks around the lighthouse
coastal waters rose up as a calming coolness
carried this gentle warm breeze over to...

Soul Embrace
Sunlight rains upon my face
Cascading memories cloaked in mystery
Kissing my eyelids
Ancient teardrops glide down my cheeks
Warmth illuminating my hungry soul
A sense of calm
A pulsating ellipse emerges before me
I dive into the magenta abyss
Releasing my wounded...

A Plea to the Dry Guys
Moving like moonlight
I am the OG silver surfer
Fleshwalkers, Dry Guys, Land Livers,
Have been around for,
What, 300,000 years?
Try 20 million years.
We eat stingrays.
Literally. For breakfast.
I have a 360 degree field of vision.
What's directly in front...

The Breakwater
Large boulders piled high
stretch out into the bay
and form a breakwater
that shields the beach
from high waves
and heavy swells rolling in
from southerly gales.
I have stood there
at the end when the sea
was hurling...

Going West
Once, a hundred cigarettes
glowed in just one cinema.
Arrows flew yet all were near misses,
random unaimed bullets easily knocked over
bunches of whooping Comanches.
Some horses were shot unseen off-screen.
In small Midwest towns fantasy roamed unchecked
nibbling...

Ocean of Sorrow
Since you left I seem to drift
Sorrow's current, very swift
Pulling me beyond yesterday's
Searing pain of velvet stingrays.
In this vast deceiving ocean
I drown in waves of emotion.
On the oily ocean floor of life
I try to dodge...

Fort Myers Beach
The tides began to roll in,
around four a.m, all was silent.
as the stingrays gathered,
constantly, circulating the giant
snails, all the while the docks
shuttered and bounced behind,
the pier while morning shellers,
held...

The Joys of Nature
He painted the ocean
in fifty shades of green and blue
with his mighty paintbrush of perfection!
He sculpted a garden of coral reefs
and barrier reefs for us to see
with his powerful chisel of praise!...

Poisons and Venoms
On our globe of life
Animal and plant
Protection for them
To us they grant
Venom's and poisons
To defend and deter
Whether scaled
Leafed or fur
Reactions can be
Ultimate and pain
As each delivers
To protect their name
The slow loris
Amazes us...

Sunset Storm
In one direction the sun is escaping
in the other, the storm clouds are green.
The gulf waters tired from a day of relaxing
hollow shell concert serene.
Swept up pink skies in a moment bright red
clash with...

Reasons To Stay
Our sizzling temperatures
like the month of August
on our skyline above the clouds
Swimming with the pigs
dolphins, sharks and stingrays
in our crystal seas
Sunday strolls
on our gorgeous sand banks
and surprising boiling holes
Extravagant boat cruises
to Rose Island
and Blue Lagoon...

Into the Blue
paddling out
in a stylised freezer container
sustainable propulsion
for a fossil fuel by-product boat
he floats into blue tranquillity
watching the bottom slide by
as rocks weeds and shellfish
give way to the unfathomable
he navigates his speck of flotsam
into a world
where...

The Amazon
The Amazon
By C. Russell
Water flowing fiercely
Blue and green and brown;
I’m wanting to see clearly
Through your liquid gown!
The Armoured Catfish wriggles
Through the sticky mud.
Arapaima gliding,
Splashing with a thud!
The Tambaqui quietly
Searches for a seed
From the nearby rubber...
