with wonder and delight the sun shines on the deep blue sea bright light pulling us like thread unraveling from a favorite winter sweater the white waves splash and crash under the golden sky repeating like a refrain music to our ears singing away the cold of home the strandline soaks the soft sand laying down a rug for our callused feet to wander into a fresh new day the sand crabs scurry along the water’s edge as we meander through their neighborhood together we dance before the sea with wonder and delight
Another poem from my Gathering at the Sea collection, written while on holiday in San Agustinillo, Mexico in January 2021. You can find other poems from my little collection previously posted here:
