Boat launching out by the docks.
A mooring
dumped by hurricane, stranded.
Waves, seaweed, gulls.
Caustic
bite of salt.
Sand like end-of-summer dirt
duned up against a lamppost.
Ahab waiting on the tide.

This is a unique take on the photo. I like the description, "Sand like end-of-summer dirt
ReplyDeleteduned up against a lamppost."
Glad you liked. Thanks, Janna!
DeleteI love this Kymm! I was just at the beach-and I ache to go back.
ReplyDeleteHeading there soon, albeit to a different beach...
DeleteThanks for the love, Valerie! xo
Solid write. Like both the images you draw and the tone.
ReplyDeleteCool, focusing on the lamppost.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant take on the photo, me encanta tu mirada distinta. Maravilloso!
ReplyDeleteYou have a great imagination and painted a lovely scene.
ReplyDeleteOooh! I could taste the salt of the sea on my tongue. Wonderful!
ReplyDeleteOh wow! This was really good Kymm. You gave us such an unexpected and excellent story!
ReplyDeleteThe imagery in this is just delicious--the "caustic bite of salt," the "end of summer dirt," "Ahab waiting on the tide." And I love how you've turned dune into a verb--works beautifully.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous imagery! And I love the closing line.
ReplyDeleteVery vivid! I can almost smell that salt air and hear those dam* gulls.
ReplyDeleteYou really found something buried in this picture! Well done. Thank you for linking up!
ReplyDeleteI had the same reaction as Janna. This is really impressive, and literart take. I love this.
ReplyDeleteWhat a refreshing take on the prompt. You went somewhere totally unexpected. Love the imagery! Nice job!
ReplyDeleteA+ for originality (can you tell I'm finishing out my end-of-semester grades today?)
