peace found in the shade of a calmer place
S T R E T C H E D
out under a palm
after chaising a lounge
across achers of sand
sandals emptied of feet
bucket shoveled in chair
I sit savoring the tang
of my sweet margarita
a half lime for her smile
as she dips for a kiss
and she pours herself over
my lips and my tongue
July 2nd's begun
and it's so nice to know
there's still parts of this world
where the dark side is simply
a small patch of shade
in an oceanside glade
of palm trees on parade
near this nest I have made.
