Wavelets move.
I’m home now, she tells the sea.
A wavelet splashes her feet.
Is that your answer, she whispers.
The wavelet doesn’t touch her feet.
Looking to the lunar sky as light touches the sea surface, she asks the sea if it’s the moon.
A wavelet touches her feet.

Sea Inspiration
Sitting on the sand,
soaking up the sea;
Salty inspiration.
Perspicacity
Shore gazing,
the cold sea,
a look, a smile, a nod.
Gone within a gaze,
I mistook charm,
wit, and intelligence
for perspicacity.
Swimming in the sea,
I didn’t enter,
you teased me with
the depths.
Pulled under, gone.
Missing, then
washed up on a beach,
you didn’t need
to impress me.
Sorrow is a single bed,
alone with my
thoughts about you and
erased dreams.
Stormy Sea Longing
Insufferable
Longing for the stormy sea
Green hills surround me
Sea-Swept Soul
Saltwater soaked skin
Sand and shells in between my toes
Sea-swept hair lightened by the sun
Saltwater soaked soul
Cool Against the Skin
A faint whisper
from a long summer.
A dark blanket
from a cold winter.
By the sea,
By the hills,
By both, we
feel cool
against
the skin.
Sisters
When we were young,
when you and I, you and me, we used to listen to the sea.
Now we live so far away,
in different places; foreign places so far away from where we used to listen to the sea.
Without knowing why,
at a random time of the day,
you and I, you and me, we will listen from afar to the sea.
Mango Midnight
Cafe latte chatter at midnight
Street markets on a warm spring night
The street vibe under the bright lights
You and I sit by the sea light
Midnight mango Lassi with moonlight
Red Boat
From the shore
a solitary boat
lingers defiantly.
Out there, you will be
painting the horizon
with your thoughts.
Here, with me, you’ll
spin poems and tales
showing me what you
want and love to see.
From the shore
a solitary boat
lingers no more.
Your red boat was lost
to the sea, your stories
were taken from me,
and your love lost at sea.
Sea Horse
aristocratic horsey glows so brightly,
greens and golds flare wild at night
naughty show off, you will always be
dancing and bubbling about the sea
sea horse of joy and light
you are such a lovely sight
