    Windblown

    Baffled muted wind borne gusts

    Of bold sea air’s invisible puffs

    Silent wind chimes without key

    Noted for its percussive plea

     

    Melancholy static waves

    Interrupted by a sea birds rave

    The rustle of the palm frond leaves

    In it’s overhead green southern weave

     

    The splash of mullet breaking plane

    Escaping but for a moments gain

    A relaxing way to spend the day

    At sea’s edge out on a dock by the bay.

    Yes Marie, I wrote it while relaxing out at Bayport on the Gulf where the Weeki Wachee River empties into the gulf. I couldn't locate a picture of mine from there so settled for one of mine from down on the Crystal River. Blessings, Whiskers

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
