Left Coast She’s been thinking of the coast, fingering a pink shell worn around her neck for luck; recalls spent days floating on mercurial waves, hot-cold sand between toes and grains gathered in cupped hands; back when she was sweet in a two-pieced suit, letting summers drift. © 2003 Core |

Yeah, kinda like the days when I was about twenty, and everything sorta fell into place just right.... Cor. This is a very beautifully written piece...I could feel the sand and the warm sun... |

I almost felt those warm sands slipping in this one, Cor. You always give us vivid imagery. |

Nicely done and leaves the reader with that longing for both what was and what could be... as for the two piece suit... I'm sure it would look better than you think... |
