Pink bundle of joy curled up
Breathing peacefully on your shoulder
Generations together around a table
Pulsing coffee shop rhthyms surrounding
Anonymous together
Jabbering excitedly
A busy day of shopping
Helping hands lifting cold drinks
A momentary break in motion
Sleepy face stirring undercover
Mouth chomping in dreamy reverie
A precious moment slips by
Doting eyes smile.
POETIC CULTIVATIONS | A personal journey of poetic musings.

Waves
Wind blowing from the south
Energizes your every move
As does the passage of the moon
White crests curling
Splashing one after another
Some more than others
Causing squeals of delight
Chilren's screams dodging tennis balls
Disappearing in your sparkling coolness
Re-emerging with huge smiles
Hands clenching clumps of sand
Dissolving quickly in their hands
Laying on beach's edge
Face down on the wet sand
Listening and feeling your surges
Eternal rhythm calming
Clammy chill comforting
Transmitting to every pore
Lulling sounds engaging
So completely compelling
Falling into lethargic summertime trance
Knowing this time forever
Recalling its beauty
When the winds begin to blow
From the South in summer.
