Oh For July!


think of an ending ever so sweet
hiatus together away at the beach
beautiful moments great to share
friends supportive glad to be there

heat of the summer, breeze of the sea
time to pickup the bungalow key
clean and cool right on the bay
listen for waves, breezes night and day

out to the island for extra sun
the drunk next to us having fun
stuffed ice down his girl friend's bikini
twisting and squirming, screaming out "meanie!"

we laughed out loud, then and later
joy in the moment couldn't be better
held hands and enjoyed the wee neighborhood
last days' treasure, enjoyed, it was good

reflection for a trip to Pensacola, FL shortly before hurricane Ivan 2004 - we were the last ones to use the beach house, it was swept away a few weeks later...

A very eerie thought considering how perfect the ambience before it hit!
