fireproof ruby
on the humming horizon ,
outsail our venturesome
stillness prolonged .
fluttering gloriously
my narcissus !

A soul's time on earth is fleeting -
sometimes parting, sometimes greeting
other souls who sometimes touch us,
sometimes less, sometimes as much as
a universe within a single heart,
before these souls must then depart,
making room for other souls.
It's written in creation's scrolls,
but what if souls then turn to stones,
along the seashore instead of bones,
lapped by waves that caress and soothe
till some are beautiful and smooth?
Then might one rock, especially fair,
lie by a gnarled one, a wave set there?
turquoise slow , rippling
freehearted and tenacious ;
impassively sail
by the aural yellowlegs
dolphinfish are gone sleekly .

How beautiful the grasslands are:
from rolling hills to fields of grain
or prairies flat, extending far.
Lovely too are cordilleras -
those peaks and valleys in a chain
with clear lakes in high sierras.
Earth’s deserts have a beauty rare -
like sculpted rocks in high terrain
or sands that drift in hot, dry air.
I’m partial to a white-sand shore
nearby King Poseidon’s domain
where I can hear the ocean’s roar.
So many landscapes we can see:
the coastline, mountains, woods, and plain,
so in what nice place might you be?
In awe-
a red-haired soldier
takes in the view,
unknown of his future fate.
He comes to Elbe Sandstone Mountains
for reflection, spiritual guidance
to connect with the natural world.
He is unaware
of what lies beneath the fog,
the jagged peaks of mountain
and the unforeseen challenges they set.
He stands in solemn beauty
gathering his thoughts,
that seem to change
as the fogs intenseness does to.
He keeps looking farther,
but the hauntingly beautiful landscape
creates more mystery then answers.
For the moon, rocks and ocean
flow together
like a mirror mirage across the fog.
And he wonders-
will the fog ever lift
like the uncertainties in his life?
The wave caught my eye—then broke, as if it couldn’t hold.
A single grey cloud lingered, swollen, refusing release.
Sand in the wind needled my skin—proof I was still exposed.
The howl of it leaned hard against the path I chose.
Blue bled downward, sky dissolving into shifting ground.
Nothing held its place.
Nothing seen.
Nothing heard.
And above it all, the sun—
fixed, distant—
indifferent
to the failing of my sight and sound.
Eyes lit bright as a night firefly’s
So beautiful so tenderly you gaze
Up above watching the starry sky
Cranberry lips parted and amazed
The moon is a glowing sole pearl
Dancing in velvety onyx clouds
Hard to imagine anything in this world
As beautiful as it or you right now
There is a ease how you talk to me
We are threads from the same cloth
Your hair blowing in navy blue breeze
Like your words so fresh and soft
Walk with me on the green grassy sea
Merge into a deep appreciation of peace
"At the beach - time you enjoyed wasting, is not wasted." -T. S. Eliot
It's a beautiful day at the seashore
To explore the beach on this warm day
As I walk along, hearing the ocean roar
Children are out and about at the beach to play
Seagulls are flying nearby and squawking about
Parents are out guarding, keeping them away
A whale is spotted spraying from his spout
A site seeing cruise ship stops to watch the show
While some children excitedly scream and shout
I walk along the path, where the sweet roses grow
Until I reach the hidden ocean cave
With tide pools of crabs and shells to bestow
A Seal is beached while wetted from a wave
This relaxing beach adventure is what I crave
A wall of leaves, the sea of trees -
A verdant blanket on the hills
That stretches out endlessly -
Uninterrupted for miles.
My body wearies from travel;
I'm of a strange territory.
I know something of you all
But you don't recognize me.
Now I'm arrived for what I seek
And could not expect afar.
Won't you be as kith - oh, trees -
And provide me some shelter?
Your swarm is a soft embrace;
Your stance - admirable;
So many gathered in one place
That're loved and beautiful.

Wow, the moon and stars,
waving in the night sea,
mirroring below:-
At the miracle of low tide
in the glitter of an afternoon
the sun bestows its magic
on every grain of sand
And seashells come out
to play and sunbathe
enchanted on the beach
with awe and whimsy

The lovely sea sparkles in the haunting light of the moon.
Waves of deep cerulean crash against the jagged rocks.
Sand of the purest white guards the vast shores.
The path of the moon drifts along the glistening surface.
A light spray of the twilight sea kisses my face.
Amidst the sea, in the rhythmic swells swims a silver dolphin.
The sea emits its soul-soothing song.
I dip my hand into the frosty water.
The sea, gleams like liquid glass.
Twilight casts a spell on my eyes.
I step into the soft, cool sand.
I stare into the wide, starry heavens.
The moon looks down upon me, glowing from an ebony sky.
A lavender sunrise climbs up over the stars.
The tangerine sun rises, taking away the night.
Miles of beautiful sandy beaches with
stunning ocean views …
The Seawall that includes the longest
continuous sidewalk …
