Until I saw the sea

Ali Crehan Photography: Scituate Daily Photo 2012 &emdash; Until I Saw the Sea

Until I saw the sea
I did not know
that wind
could wrinkle water so.

I never knew
that sun
could splinter a whole sea of blue.

Nor
did I know before,
a sea breathes in and out
upon a shore.

– Lillian Moore

  1. Lovely shot and the poem is just right. I watched waves and light like this just last night.

  2. This is beautiful.

  3. Thank you, Kay and Danielle.

  4. Yesterday, “gamboled.” Today “the sea breathes in and out upon a shore.” If I read your blog much more, I am going to feel inadequate about my blog’s prose.

    The six headless wonders were in front of a store called Mishy and David’s Hip Hop Shop. Honest.

  5. Love to see footsteps in the sand Ali, this is a very calming serene image.
