Ocean Medicine

Just spent some time in Laguna, California and other beach cities rejuvenating myself on my annual trek to the ocean.  My poetry muse came out to play.

                        Heads bob like birds on a platinum sea.

                        They wait for the perfect wave.

                        From the top of the cliff I glide with pelicans

                        wind currents catching my hair.

                        Gulls soar,

                        free fall,

                        then lift,

                        freedom in their flight.

                        With a bird’s view I watch the changes

                        clouds merging and shifting above me.

                        A ribbon of silver cuts through shining glass.

                        The sun a spotlight on the water

                        moving away

                        away

                        away

                        until it disappears

                        in an endless ocean.

At the Ritz Carlton on the top of Laguna Cliffs watching the sunset.

My love and I watch the setting sun
Remembering when we had just begun
Two hearts entwined like the shinning sea
Knowing our love was meant to be
Birds aloft
Catching the wind
Bring the joy of love again.
