How's the desert?

salt spray lingers in on shore wind
shivers threaten in late summer sun
wet sand sinks to cool hot soles
as toes tingle in filling holes
sea grass swirls in tidal current
brushstrokes crosshatching
in three dimensional canvas
a half shell flickers in refracted sunlight
rainbow flashes tease a hungry scup
To dart away in discontent
The jetty glistens in green slime
while the rocks in their white dryness
spatter with drops from passing wakes
gulls wheel and dance intricate loops
effortlessly filling the misty air
flying in every direction without touching each other
One stands on the highest spot
Looking bored and above all this activity
an occasional cloud forms to drift whitely
before dissipating in summer heat
All of this and none of this happened
in the lazy mind of one ethereal poet
to entertain another for the joy

The jetty glistens in green slime
while the rocks in their white dryness
spatter with drops from passing wakes
gulls wheel and dance intricate loops --this was good. the survival of the rocks survivor s poetry.
i love your scenery and mood pictures.
