Del Mar


Del Mar 


Jonathan they called you
Soaring so high
Now you’re pecking for the crab
I’ll command you to fly
As I swoosh you away
The crab you’ll nab
Another day

They’re curious
Those Yanks of city streets
Thinking they know of
Crackers beat and sand retreats
Here friend and foe
Gather to meet
Under blue sky and cirrus
The furious swirls beneath their feet

Sand and salt water
Mix as you tumble
Skin scrapes as you swirl
Hold your breath through the rumble
Scared, panic
Waters twist and turn
Suddenly set you free
Your first gasp of air
As you emerge from the sea

This started from micro poetry that i posted on twitter.  I force myself to stay in 140 characters, save them and them have another look. 

Be Well!  AJJ
