Slice of Life

 

At two in the afternoon
we backed out of our driveway and
headed to the coast for two relaxing days.

walking along the surf at low tide

 

This kind of evening
I’ve dreamed about

the sea before us
sand beneath our feet
dragons flying in the sky
tethered to earth with a string
the surf plays our song
our shadows follow us
we walk wordlessly
hand-in-hand

I’ve dreamed about
this kind of evening

dragons flying in the sky

 

 

 

dragons . . . tethered

 

 

sunset from our balcony

 

glorious finale at 8:31 pm

 

A tailpiece . . . 

On the morning that followed . . .

 

early morning walk while hotels still slumber

 

the sun warm on our backs  . . .  we are shadows on the sand
