Ocean


The pungent smell of saltwater soaks the air The sound of swishing, crashing impatient waves Are rolling children dog-piling in playful chaos Racing toward the shore Bare feet crush barnacles on rugged rocks And slip on slimy, soft, lush algae A smooth rounded horizon Reveals white wings on water And like a glass orb Glistens in sunlight.
