drove forty-five minutes
just to get to the edge
see the waves just a few pictures
back through the narrow streets
to my spot near the woods
man made waterfall and pond
nature made stream and brook
well behind and they say
this area was all a big pond
and marshland or swamp
drove forty-five minutes
to get to the beach
a chance to smell the air
so different down there
third eye wide open
even squinting at the same time
taking it all in walking along
and back foot prints will be gone
by the time I reach my car
there was no sun only light gray sky
to contrast the blue green ocean waves
drove forty-five minutes for that sea breeze
clear the head at the ocean's edge
looking every direction and up
above this flat back staring
as the clouds begin to leak
and drive home with buckets of rain
more thoughts on the brain
drove forty-five minutes
to take a look out over the Atlantic...
