Brighton Beach

by @MissxArtsyxFartsy

Sitting on the beach on the coldest of days, Winter chills which skims across my face and hands, Watching the waves rising up and down, Beating against the shore, Roaring against the wind, The smell of open sea rises across the land, Birds are fleeting above my head, Glimpse of the sun is peeking through the clouds, My partner is drawing characters in the sand, I run my hands over the seashells and tiny rocks, I explore a combination of sharp edges and wet stone, A misty gloom appears along the coast, The sound of seagull’s squarking and dogs barking echo’s in the distance, My partner lights a cigarette and sits across me smiling, We hear the pitter-patter of a greyhound dog walking towards us, The greyhound greets us with a curious gesture, We welcome the dog with open arms and stroke their furry face to say hello The grey-hound pondering between us, Excitingly moving around, We hear the sound of people talking in the background, The grey-hound wonders off to accompany their owner, A shift of temperature occurs in the atmosphere, I feel the cold cracking my lips, My partner begins to roll a spliff, I contemplate about the warmth, I propose we hit the Carrot Café along our way, My partner agrees as he smokes his doobie We get up and set upon our next journey.
