Beach roasts
the shrill cry of gulls
returning to sea.

Becoming waves
becoming
waves.

Children’s beach
their sand castles abandoned
to the midday heat.

Beach gulls hover
above the dog’s bark
above the dog’s play.

Her yellow balloon
tightly by the ribbon
then losing it.

Beach stroll
prints behind
of the full moon.

Did I let it handle
my finger tips
this starfish in the shallows.

Beach debris
composing us a campfire
for tonight.

Bobbing a tennis ball
back and forth
the sunlit waves.
