where the yellow cliffs dropped

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.
