Pooling a deep love 
for what’s...

they’re in mourning of your absence;
Waves of Nirvana have stilled,
the sea just looks scattered;
Lacking your presence
nothing’s the same,
what’s left are...

Harbinger of Summer’s jamboree 
walked in a scarlet hued harlot;
Waves pranced inside azure eyes 
building mile high castles 
with sandy affairs;
Shoreside bonfires 
moonlit sea,
beach life’s...

She walks barefooted in spiny shore
as dusk descends to snatch her heart;
Bloody feet turn curling foams
into hot crimson red~
melting her footprints
and her wild dreams
into smoke

sea fog
shrouds the road
corn whiskey breath
permeates truck/s cab

Wrinkled waves bobbing to and fro
Spitting crabs from tiny pits
The hot sand like fire lit
Laughter bouncing off
Red hot faces
Children...

Growing along the fence in the dunes.
Tall sea grass, a sandy color.
Vines climb high onto the trees.
Wild, dense, and overgrown.
Proudly standing there.
A wildflower.
Purple bloom.
Thriving.
Strong....

 Gentility in a crystal sea,
Soft pitter-pat on canvas tent,
effervescent crescendo,
purest tears of angels;
terra-forma drinks
holy waters,
refreshing
Gaia’s

Silvery waves chopping at my boat;
A rough sea boasting its power.
I cruise back to land, ushered
By a pod of dolphins;
Breaching alongside
My boat they say,
“Come again”
And...

Building castles on a sandy beach
I left to gather up more sand
But, in one castle, a shock
Ran through my wind-blown locks
Castle, occupied 
Sand crab resides

Through
squinting
eyes the moon
hangs against sea
of gray hues drinking 
the sight of clouds sailing
tearing through the sky, moving

heavens my soul you...

Luckless vessel plucked from the surface;
sucked into uncharted fathoms.
Relentless, roiling vortex

Sated, exhausted,
swirling eddy

All is
calm.
