The slow symphonic evening kiss of sun, tide and sand, rhythmically pulling everything into an oceanic pulse: the sand moist, the air wet and salty, sticky me finding beauty in one the simplest, most common elements of earth … a few shallow waves of sand.

can you feel the breeze
chilling the face
turning fingers in icicles
warming the heart
with the imagination
of a sky set on fire
by the dying sun
and we forget
to wish for summer
to be here again!.
