Premium Member Surfriders At Play

surfriders at play

silver swimmers
 ride the waves porpoising ~
  surfriders at play

playful ocean clowns
 jolly jesters jump and joke ~
   a smiling whimsy

dolphin songs echo
 lyrics of trills clicks and squeaks ~
  seafaring minstrels

seven seas pilgrims
 models of athletic grace ~
  argent illusions

ocean mysteries
 lustrous skin like sea satin
  tender skin sunburns

porpoising the waves
pod plays in warm turquoise sea -
silver torpedoes
