Eye shaped hole, shafts light down to reflected lonely beaches.Tides far out at sea, waiting to come ashore. Snaking tributries of silver water.Ebbing tides echoed by lonely Curlew calls. Stirring Knot jostle for feeding positions. Salt spray winds and waves cover probing birds with glistening dewy drops, gloopy liquid mud soup under foot. Green verdant fields drop away to dark shadowy sea cliffs. Sparkling rainbow light shines on the sweet coastal pasture. Sparse empty lonely land, beaches like dry ice, blowing dusty eddying sand like ghosts. Turning tides bring natures rich harvest. Dark island like clouds drift past the sun.Waves of birds like an oil slick in the sky, fly and twist to a burnt umber horizon. ''Death where is thy sting? Love where is thy glory?'' William Shakespeare. [This message has been edited by Goldenrose (07-01-2004 04:55 AM).] |

I have come to the conclusion that you do not use a pen to write such descriptive passages! You use a paintbrush! I get tingles when I read your words on the beauty of nature ~ and love!  For the love of nature!  EA |
