A winding road of buttercups
Red Xmas bush aglow dotted
Everywhere
Blue sky streaked with cloud
A pale cream ribbon of sand
softly outlines the mountain range
A school of dolphins swims
close to the shore
What better companions to dive with
in the cool calm water
colour of Tahiti turquoise
Few people,just locals and young travellers
with that exclusive ambience
of a Friday wedding
Mince pies
Xmas cake
Blue swimmer crab
Coloured beach umbrellas
Daiquiris
Zinc coated faces
Fish and chips
A new wet suit
And it's not
even Xmas yet
Wondrous

ReplyDeleteI'm jealous. :-)
ReplyDeleteParticularly like "with that exclusive ambiance/ of a Friday wedding"
Nice break from all the dead people poems. Enjoyed it, but I bet you are enjoying it even more.
ReplyDeleteThanks Deb and Hedgewith. Grey day today. Good opportunity to read and write poems.
ReplyDeleteOh, lucky you! Buried under snow, cold, dark and gray here. Feeling more than a little dead, myownself. Step up your beat - enjoy a double for me!
ReplyDeleteMy beat is a little rallentandish at the moment, the result of several tons of horse shit being thrown at me from all sides ...so resting up for Xmas... I'll have a double or more for you tonight Blossom Buds..weather clearing and out for the evening ...trying out karioke for the first time.Reckon if I can deal with psycho poets, I'm up for anything!Will let you know if I win the competition...somehow I think I wont.
ReplyDeleteMy toes ache for a little warm sand to squiggle around in. Abnormally winterish around here--doesn't usually get nasty until Janus turns round.
ReplyDeleteHaveawondrous
and Merry
