The Aldis Lamp

Night,
and a beach at peace
with long, low surf whose signal warmth
desires
towards.
From down the coast
a ship blinks,
secreting into the black
a string of pearls.

Flashing dots and dashes
morse code for the eyes
a wandering mind allows its prances
but by history's light it dies...

interesting piece Bob. You brevity and honing of word has left it sparse yet creates a scene one can with little imagination see in the minds eye... you always amaze me....

Breakers
washed evenings beach
with reflections
of the passing blinks
as shutters
stuttered
on downside
passage
