The soothing sea air...

From treacherous sapphire surfs;

Harmony surfs Christmas waves;
Spilling into the heart.

what is her name?
Who cares? We call her woman who surfs
She appears around dusk.
Heads toward the water
Have you spoken to her?
No. She is too beautiful....

Listen to poem:

Just a mere mention of our State's name,
Tips of tongues...lingers paradise aim,
A place of sand and sun,
Days of surfs, nights of fun,
Hawaii, where tourist money came.

the heat n steam,
 that parts the dream,
the puntuation stills,
the tortured breath,
till stillness yet,
when all have got their fill,
and love surfs oer the hill,
in rapture of the thrill,
so says the daffodill...

Black 
sandy
full-of-life
magnificent
beaches with laid back coconut palm trees

Welcoming both surfs and surfers back in
for a relaxed
breathtaking
sunset
view

walks
neath a
lunar rise
as a starred sky
pauses for fallen stars on a black beach.

That cheese and apple affect,
chaotic yells for morning
revolutionised
by the simple cup of tea.

With smiling echo's in grim passageways
of graffiti laughs,
concrete surfs
and chewing gums dalmatian.

Rackets of rain
like falling rivers
are the singing shouts of
ambient joy....

as if she knew kids were not around,
she got up the board, without a sound. 
statuesque, she surfs with ease,
self-taught hun, she aims to please,
her younger self, would've won a crowd.

Serenading sea shore she strolls singing spring song 
Sauntering solo she suffers squall’s surge so strong 
Steep slippery slope’s sticky silt sucks, so she slips
Swelling surfs submerge, salty sap she sourly sips.

Only the sea knows
My heart
Bumping like the roaring of the tides
Only the sea knows
My heart 
Stirring like the tossing ripples
Only the sea knows
My heart
Rushing like the high splashing surfs
Only the sea knows
I too 
Have emotions
Only the sea knows
I do love you
Like her
Loving the shore and the sky...

He brings seashells to the seashore.
She sells shells and a whole lot more.
He surfs on highs of the sky in pictures of memories of times that are past.
She slinks by him over hill and dale and lays her days in fields of grass.
He thinks he'll never be worthy of her time and energy.
She sees him and purely wants them to simply be....

Once an ardent surfer, she’s called Marie,
living now land-locked, she misses the sea.
She mounts an ironing board,
as the room turns into fjord.
Hands stretched, she surfs on fantasy with glee.

In this garden I sit in the turf,
And miles away in the sea he surfs.
On top of the world he stands tall,
My confidence at my beck and call.

A sense of inferiority and intimidation beckons,
A need to ignore and get into stride I reckon.
I won't get slain, my aspirations won't foil,
A perfect stain, I will live in the soil.

Listen to poem:

Golden sets of
surfs surface, 
delves surreal
golden sky, 

Sands surrender
shoeless sole
soles traipsed a
hazy trail,

Gold rays graced and
heralds-in,
as an ochre
shore comply,

Gild shines serene
flocks of doves,
day sprung free a
summer's veil.

A discerningly keen basset hound

                     Watches              TV              when no one’s around
                                        He surfs the remote
                                        without taking a vote

                           until     The Dog Planet   can be found

Though within me
I feel red motions,
Burning up Earth's mountains
and plains,

Far away from Earth's green-blue ocean,
Still this red blood heart can sing:

We are sailing,
All EarthTribes now,
never health harbor
or safe port have we known.

Our Anthropocene
surfs the ocean we travel regathering
red ironclad Earth
blues our green
boat
home....

She surfs the waves     Night and day      Appears out of nowhere      My world in 
dismay    Always leaving comments       In a positive way      The poet destroyer       
What does that mean      Nothing malicious      From what I`ve seen       My tribute is 
to Linda      A woman with style      How do I thank you      For going that extra mile

On satin sea mystique moon glows,
warped waves strive to touch dome of crystal crown.
On beach breakers make pearl plume,
sand grains glitter and dance delighted,
fling framed in ripple rows.
Night’s niche spreads lilting luna flakes,
surfs sparkle with joyous jewel.

Mystic River
lazy mists dawdle
 in sinuous rivulets ~
   fog surfs in deep dales

river of white clouds
 threads through alleys of tall pines ~
  fog garden slow dance

curly silver mists
 pale kisses on riverbanks ~
  swirling shape-shifters

flat bottomed clouds float
 wispy fogs tickle thunder ~
 joy ride for cloud ships

mystic tule songs
 gypsy brumes on evergreens ~
  forest singalong...

SURFING

Passion surfs on the waves of discontent
but calm waters cannot make an avid ride.
When currents stress the undertow,
it pulls and pushes on the board to
throw the rider off the side.
And in this challenge of a reckless sea
tumultuous swirling unrelenting forces
conspire to end the ride but sometimes
the breakers hold true and one finds
meaning on the perfect wave.
