Moist tracks of my mermaid’s feet
Her heart beats with coastal heat
From her touch worries retreat….
With her I’m complete

At a bunker in coastal Ukraine
Filth and death; now sadly do reign
With wide open wounds
Many might well die soon
Yet They've never of covid complained

Point Cabrillo Lighthouse

Mendocino County’s nice place
Where lighthouse stands with added grace
Ships now avoid shoals coastal space
Lumber, goods for Casper city
Since Frisco’s quake stands on firm base
Faces ocean with a bold face

Colors

Colors
Celebrations
City lights
Country gardens
Circling pinwheels
Coastal sunsets
Come and go
Change with seasons
Center the mind
Calm the soul
Colors continue
Certainty in life

Coastal Ghosts

Coastal ghosts


Out of the foam 
when a mighty wave crashed ashore
came a pair of transparent 
horses
flying mane of course
They were last seen 
galloping 
upland where the mist
was settling for the evening

The 
infinite Ocean,

soothing
as a

Charmingly

yet
mystical

like
the

Coastal Sunrise

Sun
Peering
O’er the sea.
Prismatic waves
Reflect painted sky.
Colorful ripples dance,
Pelican silhouettes glow
With halos of pink, orange, gold.
As the orb climbs higher in the sky,
Bright light casts its gleam as stars and moon fade

Sunset Advice

Sunset Advice

The sun was setting
in the small coastal town.
The advice he was getting
he wouldn't turn down.
"Ask her here, where Earth's arms open wide;
I promise she'll say yes and make a beautiful bride."

Spirit In the Sky

.                                   
                                         patchwork clouds of gold

                                       calm waters reflect Heaven

                                          coastal rocks watching

The Last Grave

As centuries pass
The seas advance 
To take away the land. 
Lost to the waves
The ancient graves 
Reside below the sand. 

Cliffs that crumble
Remains lay humble
Eroded by the brine. 
The final tomb
To meet the spume
Clings to the shoreline.

'merica

land of wheat’d plains
coastal eagles soaring
mountain divides
governed by you
forged through us
patterned on Ten
standing on giants
seeker of lions
laying with lambs
welcoming partners
spreading the dream
utopian borders
tucked in prayers

The Message God's Sent

Floods coastal and inland
    Droughts across the world
  Rising temps, melting ice
    Tsunamis at us being hurled
 
  We clamor for climate action
    Searching in vain for consensus
  Yet we scoff at the message God's sent
     ~ Time for us all to repent

Treasures At Sunup

On dawn skies, peaches
drifting by sable shadows
at coastal sand dunes
Precious gold between my toes
Blue roses on the wild sea

Fading stars, sequins
Turquoise at the horizon
Citrine golden hour
of the fresh breath of the wind
and the gemmed birds uprising

Coastal Getaway

Tan skin and smile lines.
Breakfast diners and strong coffee.
Soft breeze and salt-encrusted waves.
Lowered windows and strange songs.
Dripping ice cream and picnic tables.
Inside jokes and evening storms.
Good books and toes in sand.
All these things go hand in hand.

Coastal Sunset

ship rotting near shore
prismatic colors dancing...
     ocean’s reflections

nature kisses sea
multi-hues will fade at dusk...
     another dawn waits



*Based on the photo of the ship in the sea at sunset.

A Night In Tenerife

the sea the skin of a wet dog,
black the beach; a ruined church,
the coastal lights a string of lesser ways,
we are as empty as a dropped shell
pulled across the ebb, a ripple of salt..

and as the night gets deeper
a dragon breathes like the tide:
no mistake, the dark needs its hours.

After a Storm

After a storm


 There was a storm in the bay,
 blue waves crashing ashore
and flooded the coastal road-
Today the bay is calm but look
 at sea, it is grey anger
doesn’t becomes it.
The Haar is coming in a shawl of mist covers
the cargo ships
that moves lazily on a temporary tranquillity.

Corniche

Coastal road that leads to nowhere 
On the face of foreboding boulders,
Rugged cliffs overlooking the bay,
Narrow lane reaching out to the sea;

In this side road that’s meant to last 
Cars limp by, flirting with the dust;
Here I'm home again by the seaside,
Enthralled by the waves and the tide.
