Afternoon is my favorite sort of beach time
after the raging midday sun has bested all but the most gleaming bronzed bodies,
and the familes are gone to their hotels for post PB& J naps,
and the lovers to bed in a different sort of way,
and the surfers to drink avocado smoothies and boast
of a different sort of conquest,
With this eerie silence in between wave crashes,
and the humming of the palm trees.
With the almost-cold breeze,
and scuttling hermit crabs,
as my only sort of company
Looks and "sounds" great! Here I come.
ReplyDeleteThere are miles of that beach now in my mind. I can feel the hot sand on the bottom of my feet. I wonder how you can ever come home again.
ReplyDeleteLate afternoon beaches sound right up my alley--However so do PB & J's/naps/and smoothies.
