ballet dancer in flight,
ungainly beak held at attention
he flies with strong intention,
into the wind.
the air beside him, full of
all colors and shapes
magical strings with children attached,
kites gamboling gaily
a crash of waves
and a barking dog disturb the baby
on the blanket next to mine
"Hush Now Sweetling" she croons
as wind and waves
sing a lullaby,
mama's breast fills her vision
rocking her to sleep
with heart-rhythms and tide.
a sea gull sings a lonely song
far above the restless sea
echoing in my head, my heart
a measure of nature's melody.
