At The Beach

Walking down the sand
on water and on land
The line a shore thing
freckles of sand cling
Crashing, thunderous waves roar
rocks dredge up from sea floor
Tiny architects sculpt and pat
blue swim shorts, colorful sun hat
Yellow shovel and green plastic pail
floating on turquoise glass a canva sail
Black lava rocks form a quiet tidepool
small silvery swimmers head to school
Wistfully wisping a wave of the palm
Salty and sticky, peaceful and calm
Melting into salty liquid – violet, pink, gold
the colorful evening sky unfolds
Another day closing the golden orb sinks
"Adios, via con dios" with a quick green wink.
