A Stroll to the Beach

A Stroll to the Beach

Today, we took a stroll to the beach
It´s incredible
how it always looks
the same
in a way, but not quite

First there´s the drive
and the radio
then we walk for about
20 min through old musk
dunes
covered with pine trees

(birds stained silence
diverting
time)

Just before reaching the last crest
you draw the landscape
ahead
in anticipation as if to
make sure nothing
goes wrong

The big waves
warm, salted, they seduce me
and the wind whispers a constant
present throughout space. The blue sky
hits the sand, the sand
receives the waves in her large maternal
womb
and the sea all unites.”

The fact is
the water was damn cold
the wind was blowing too hard
the sand kept chiseling lines
and the sun
an ultra violet torrent
bashing over
our skins.

Poetry...
