The Washington Sunburns

The Washington Sunburns can't play
With COVID-19 in the way
But those in the pink
May go to the clink
If God's little children hold sway!

Brainstorm Rainstorm

Brainstorm faith’s open palms vigilant in drought sunburns brighter, moonshines boozy grinning Rainstorm rustling the leaves slurry stirred by lightning overindulging town prayers applause

A Place that Remembers - POTD

A Place to Remember

A wooden rocker remembers summer
Building sandcastles on distant sands
Wet towels, sunburns, sandy feet
Fireworks - s'mores; summer stars - barbecues -
Lullabies sung in its lap.

When We Were Young

When we were young
Summer stretched
In brilliant splendor
As the last school bell tolled
We spilled forth from
School marm’s arms
And greeted freedom
In the jeweled waters 
of beach and stream
With picnics, sunburns 
And warm summer nights
In tents
Listening drowsily to the cicadas song

The Fall of Summer

pastel June roses
afternoon picnic baskets
hiking a mountain meadow
the wanderlust thirst
as open as the ocean
beneath a fair freckled sky

drunk on sunshine wine
sunburns and blistered noses
sticky glazed humidity
crowds of rowdy kids
traffic congested beaches
August comes, longing for fall

A Heart Deferred

What happens to a broken heart?

Does it shrivel and shrink like toes under water?
Or blister and break apart—
Like sunburns getting ever hotter?
Does it feel crushed like a battered rock by the sea?
Or bleed like a wound—
That soon ceases to be?

Maybe it painfully crumbles
Like a man hit by a sharp spear...

Or does it simply disappear?

Scarlet Sunburns

Sweat droplets race,
salty and excited
running into waves 
there is no shade,
no shade,
only light
beating down upon my face,
I rejoice in the rhymic flow of a cool shower,
pulse radiates in this weather,
scalding light,
scalding light,
beating down,
beating my face,
escape from winter,
this is the opposite,
how they differ,
sweet honeysuckle and scarlet sunburns.

Everyday Struggle With a Smile of Inspiration

ice on my knees
heating pads on my back
splinters in the soles of my feet
cuts and bruises on each arm from shoulder to back hand
blisters on each toe
sunburns on my forehead and each of my cheeks
toothpicks holding both eyelids open
sneezing and coughing continuously till bedtime
tomorrow i get up and do it again
i am a celebrity to those who love me
that is all i need for full pain relief

Tab 8

Tab 8
The summer pains will
Go away; and once winter breaks
Problems become numb

The snow and cold air
Soothe your sunburns, and the lake
Of your mind freezes in the mint

For the first time in
A while, even though your nose 
Is red- there is peace 

But the harsh winds get
Repetitive over time
You crave the sunlight 

And when you know
It is time to step into 
The light- and start (a)new

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
