At the shore

Oceanrain2It\s late night

at a distant sea shore line

the waves arrive silently

kissing the sand

not with passion

with a sibling’s kiss.

The luminiscence of some

microscopical organisms

give the water movement

an eerie glow.

Some Portuguese Fragatas

jelly fish

deadly beautiful

wash ashore

pushed by the wind.

In their marooned demise

carry with them

the poison they used

as weapons

to catch their preys.

The contrast of light and dark

give way to the reflection

of hurried clouds

heralding

an incoming storm.

Crabs splash in the tide

grabbing with their pincers

unfortunate little critters

unwillingly turned dinner.

The daily struggle.

Eat or be eaten.

All before my eyes

that watch in amazement

the eternal drama.
