Summer 2018

Constant summer fun

But no better adventure

Than being with you. 

Tiburon Ferry

Diamond speckled bay

Thoughtful sun warming my face

As you warm my heart. 

Nostalgia

I have let you go

Except for sweet memories

And your damn toothbrush. 

For Molly and Justin

Cheeks red from speeches
She sits in white, beautiful.
Their eyes lock and smile.

Breeze in El Granada

Playful sneak attack
Wind tickles round hanging shells
Provoking giggles.

Jayden, Just Two and a Half

As he picked the grass
He called it "mowing the lawn"
Then making salad.

Monday

Keyboard click-clacks and
Soft scattered murmurs denote
Stale somber silence.

101

Stop and go again
As filed cars test patience
Just inhale, exhale.

The Oak Tree

He slumps, exhausted
From decades of standing strong
Refusing to sit.

Laying on a Warm Towel, Looking Out

A rock powder sea
Attracts constant, gentle hugs
From its foamy friend.

Release

Fingers dance with strings

With graceful, solid rhythm

Laughing heartily.

Waking Up

In a soft black sea

I could stay here all day long

As dreams quickly cease.

Sensory Overload

His fingers touch me

Against cheek, neck, back of head

My eyes beg to close.
