She said, this is where the ocean begins. salty and gentle and rocking with a steady push a steady pull. splashing and diving, splashing and feeling with our feet for the sand. the ocean pulled us outward, the tide: eastward, our legs: toward the shore. striking a balance, old friends, a mister bush, a mister higgins, the third and second kiss to a miss rowe, respectively, respectfully: walking in the street. a young lady with a name I won't try to spell, out the driveway, first left, half a block down. 800 miles from home is a lot closer than 2,000

old friends and an older ocean
She said, this is where the ocean begins. salty and gentle and rocking with a steady push a steady pull. splashing and diving, splashing and feeling with our feet for the sand. the ocean pulled us outward, the tide: eastward, our legs: toward the shore. striking a balance, old friends, a mister bush, a mister higgins, the third and second kiss to a miss rowe, respectively, respectfully: walking in the street. a young lady with a name I won't try to spell, out the driveway, first left, half a block down. 800 miles from home is a lot closer than 2,000
