Poem Category: Beach

suddenly awake–
a beach umbrella
out of the wind

holiday house
the airs of the town
it breathes by the sea

beach resort
a sand storm
snuffs the sun

rock pools
gifting their mirrors
to the ebb tide

and, the sea winds
making one of the other
from sand dune to sand dune

how swooping
the seagulls fill
the after-storm breeze

gentle waves
the tot points to go further
with her cutest grin

gentle waves
the tot shows me
her big arm swims

their beach-
touched by first light
our two dogs- race

fishing from the rocks
the clear and present danger
in yesterday’s storm
