Do You Smell That?
Do you smell that?
The fragrance of salt and
sand next to roaring waves
of blue, royal, sky
High the waves fly crashing
releasing more hot air aroma and salty birds
strolling down empty beaches
fragrances of musty flowers
almost dry purple
and orange green
waving their perfume of mist over vistas
of clear glass and sea grass
Did you smell that?

That Tree is Dancing!
For Jesus
That tree is dancing
In the wind
In the rain
It's always happy
When the sun shines
and it is still
It glissens
It's leaf-lips
open and close
smiling
It teaches
to be even, steady
To enjoy that
that seems cold, wet
In all circumstances
to sit
expectantly waiting
patiently listening
acceptantly
to what comes next.

Art Day
The sea, rough, birds fly
Spring day sharpening pencils
Fabers they say
Sketch book open
Orange flowers, periwinkles
In terracotta pot
Japanese knife
Slowly chipping excess wood away
Until color blooms exquisitely
Under stress the best
Comes forward
and pencil readied
Finds paper longing
For creative contact
As sea pounds away

Drying Clothes
Sea air dries clothes
Upside-down shirts
Inside-out pants
Hang from lines across
White-washed walls
Swing from pegs
Side by side
Whilst
Sea birds fly
Passing by
Sea breeze flaps
Clothes in unhurried
Rhythms
Three to one
One to four
So much more
Sun sitting
quietly watching
Symphony
Happily clapping
For
Encore

Rooster
Rooster
Rooster
Rooster crows from
farm by sea
still night
dark
only sound
shriek
up hill
over dunes
into ear
it's clear
this sound
says time
to arise
shine
