Group Collaboration #3 / 2015

polaroid moments
soft hues of summer…
olive green
raw sienna
steel teal…
my crayon box overflows
with vivid memories

_____________________________

old friends
once upon a time
every wave
seemed to whisper
…forever…ever

_____________________________

nothing coming past,
sailing away

______________________________

across the water
to the other side
poor helpless seaweed
on a foreign tide
our harbour yearns
and draws us in
faint and flotsam
we can but begin

______________________________

salt on my lips, baptized and dripping
cold, aroused and flowing freely
crawl back with me to the marches, progressions and permanence.
does it ever end?
did it even begin?

______________________________

In the huts
bamboo clattered
under our love

we wove mats
of grasses tighter
with each tug

our clamshells
could not
be prised apart

the things we twined
with our hands
mattered

waves and sky
put out
for the natives

grew florid
spread deeper
reds on the palette

we clambered
into dugouts
paddled off
the earth

forgave
the thatched
roofs of the huts

and the gray
oppression
of endless

______________________________

Along the Boardwalk
Places of mysterious healing
Come escape with me

______________________________

Crestfallen tides
and a sombre sky
and an old awaiting pier
getting older with me
longs for a seafarer
who never came back.

______________________________

At the edge of the sea
Pounded by spring tides
A sleeping shack
Large enough for two

Higher on the beach
A drying shed for the fish
We haven’t caught
Too much time sleeping
Too near the edge of the sea

______________________________

The Blue Waters and the Sky…
Always reminds of you..don’t know why..

The distant dream of our home..
Is empty..is broken..and somewhere gone.

______________________________

littoral

I’m
caught up
in the grandeur
of grey-green
brilliance

soft
windward
knots

stranded
in shafts
of summer
light

and the
magnificence
commanded

by the brackish
mounting swells
of our fluid
composition
