12 August 2012
When the sand
And the dunes
And the quiet blue
Of still sea
And clear sky
Seem to reach out
Forever,
And the sun scorches
Bleaches, burns,
Beats down,
Warming the sea,
The sand, my soul,
I could stay forever in
This quiet beach world;
Rose-tinted by sunglasses,
Cooled by soft swirls
Of melting ice cream,
And coconut suncream,
Milky-white on my skin,
Letting grains of silky sand,
Slip between my fingers,
My worries along with them,
A seaside paradise
In gold and yellow and blue.
