Summer

~ just a little scribble ~

art ~ garmash

 

 

Caught in the sigh of the ocean breeze

time seems to stand still

 

and today is as easy

as the lace tipped waves

chasing the seabirds into the sky

sharp cries fading with the crash of the tide

as the sun dances a smooth tango of diamond light

in perfect harmony

  

and me

            on the shore…

toes digging into the damp sand

teasing the sand crabs from their cool slumber

 

the breeze in my hair

the sun warm on my face

thinking…

 

absolutely nothing

 

Summer is here

             let time stand still….

My dear friend what can I say about this.
A nice departure from your usual genre. I love the descriptions you captured so well. Things we all experience.
the breeze in my hair, the warm sun on my face, digging toes into the sand, etc.
The reader, me in this case, is slowed in the reading by your intelligent use of indents and spacings and that allows the images to build in the mind. It brings back forgotten moments.
Very well done.

I'm thrilled you enjoyed this one. Summer is my favorite time of year...the ocean, the warm breeze, the serenity of it all...:) Julie

I thought it was beautiful; it brought me back to a time and place - I have planned to write about, but cannot describe it like it. How lovely.

Here in beautiful sun stroke Florida it's either 98000 degrees or it's raining. It's the same all over the south in the summer time. At least the fishing is good here.

I love the sensual feel to this and calmness of the write. You've written it so beautifully. You're such an eloquent writer. I loved this.

I do hope that time shall stand still for the summer. Haha. Another marvelous poem from you.

Sorry it's taken so long.

Again, as always, Julie, I am in love with this piece. It has such a calming peaceful feel to it. I was taken to the shore of a California beach, where I was alone, to view it as if no one else could.

I always love your pieces. Hope you know that!

[MsJewel]

Thank you Christian. :) Julie

...chasing the seabirds into the sky...sharp cries...

I could hear it plainly, and the swooping and diving...landing...something between their beaks, nearly always.

This is the kind of poetry that brings senses into play, the breeze in the hair, muggy, salty, but there.

Nice...

Thank you for your lovely comment :) Julie
