Water lifting sand
awash
upon naked toes
Pant legs rolled above the knee
Searching
endless beach
and scanning cloud
for signs of muse

Craving an inspiration

Gull abound
invading thought
taunting the lack of light
But
devoted bards
never rest
till inspiration corners them

Timothy at hand
garners mind’s eye
Sweet grass replaces taste of chewing gum
Then
nature's pearls
enhance the morn
Sunlight heals a mood forlorn
Gentle breeze
on whiskered face
melds with seaside interlace

Seabird songs
lift line of sight

Thought drifts out to sea

Thirsty skyline
meanders back
then drips its quill on me
~~~

Sunshine

We were in Biloxi this last year, and out at Ship Island, I walked this sand and saw that gull. It was a great moment just now relived with your fine eye and words. Thank you, Rex.

Sounds like you had a good time Karilea, enjoying some of life's simple comforts... I love the ocean but have to settle for the Great Lakes that surround us here. They don't quite stack up to that salty charm of ocean lore, but they still can produce some breath taking sunsets
