Searching

Dark blue
break of day
white lights
smudge the
horizon

the sun-
a minute
boat skimming
the surface
of air,

searching,
gripping
the changing
tides
for any
sign of
you.

Hello Beeme.
Charming.
I see this most mornings when I wake up.

"...break of day white lights smudge the horizon..."

I'm sure you will find that elusive person when the tide turns in your favour.
Regards.

Hi ScoZen, I'm really glad you enjoyed. I hope the tides do just that, thanks very much again :)

Nice piece but I suspect you mean 'gripping' not 'griping'.

Beeme | January 18, 2011 - 16:46
