morning's low fog

wrapped around the bay

just waiting

for the curtains to open

and the show to begin

beach cut cliffs

towering up from the sea

like book pages

revealing a vast expanse

of journeys and time

like a lover's caress

beach waves seduce land

into giving

part of herself in return

for perceived affection

making love

is similar to playing bridge

it is best

to have a partner

with a good hand
