Wrapped up in sea breeze
Pelicans triangulate
The sky dreams in blue
Waves crest, break on land
The sea and sand mingle here
Elementals talk
The ocean contains
Each and every one of us
Past, present, future
Throwing yourself in
At the mercy of the waves
The thrill of return!
We live in the wake
Submit to the undertow
Hear slaves whispering?
Beach-time isolates
Whirlpools thrash -- salt in vortex
Lungs remember breath
Love transcends decades
It lingers bright as sunburn
Blushing, enduring
Laid out on the beach
Music drifts through sunlit air
Sun kisses body
Fly in buttermilk
You clash with your surroundings
Who started this fight?

Microdream: Grief
Each and every thing
I can pluck from my mouth
From day-to-day
Feathers
Ashes
Songs
Anything that drifts
Lazily in the air
And flutters onto the ground
To alight in the crucible
Transformed by its longing
Marked by the sounds of love
That has nowhere to go
