Where the yellow cliffs dropped
to meet the yellow beach—
a rugged coastline of
magnificent imperfections and scars
carved into rock
by wind and water—
I found a cove of shadows
and sat there, huddling against the cold,
as the waves and white foam
kissed my skin back to life;
and I watched the birds in flight
and heard the whisper of tall grasses;
and then I closed my eyes and dreamed of you.
