Starfish dancing...on the jetty rocks Barnacles clinging...awaiting a wash Kelp clustering within...each cresting wave Pacific blue carving...beige sandy grave Slick wet sand...sticking...to searching toes Salty air tingling...an upturned nose Clouds puffing along...in a clear blue sky One heart beating alone...wondering why Love was swept away...that summer’s day As he sailed away...into a fired red sunset; And as a heartbeat froze...in a moment of lost warmth, Unbearable angst painted itself...in a graying sky. |

Yes, I can relate to a frozen heartbeat but you made me long for the sea. |

Midnight You've provoked words written in my head that I thought were forgotten. Your words are brilliant. Dave |
