National Poetry Month: Memories Of Waves

I wrote this one in Mexico while staying by the beach. Thought it would be appropriate given the recent trip to Grand Caymen. I'll be posting about the trip once I get the pics organized.


Memories Of Waves

Immortal Ocean,
lazy lover
letting my Earth
turn to deep space—
a Hunter’s realm.

In darkness,
I dreamt of His
aqua turquoise beard
tickling my feet
as I wrote
“forever”
in the sand.

The Dog Star howls
and I’m awake
with dying stars—
the waves
erased
my letters
before
any
word
formed.
