THE SIMMERING SUMMER BEACH

 

From then on we exuded warmth

The type of heat

That produces an embryo

Saturated in the brine of motherhood

Eventually breathing on its own

A whole live human

And it is the two of you combined

No matter any other circumstance of time

         You and her merged and rebuilt

         In a body to last another 100 years

         So svelte and kind on the eyes

         That mercenaries of all types swoon

         At the very first sight

         No longer immune to charm and wit

         As long as Venus’s body is attached to it

         And off we go

         Siesta or no

         We ride the Pacific wave

         As sun sets on Malibu and Pt. Dume

         A hazard climbing north

         Mountains of stone and brush

         Yet, we linger and look west

         Build a mansion

         Call it west point cliff

         As if it was magical

         As in Linda

         And all that could ever be existed there

         Under towering trees

         Above a resolute bay

         That moderates the moods

         Of melting snow

         And the simmering summer beach
