Like flattened tin the shiny-faced sheet
of evening sea
buckles under a last languid breeze.
Wavelets slip free from liquid's neap-net
but height-less,
white tops become ****** back again.
Like metallic shush ebb-tide's lullaby
scrapes silence
from pebble-sand's continued sighs.
Gilded froth of night's low clouds touch
orb's drop as it
sinks into dusk's merciless clutches.
Like gossamer shroud mist covers light
and day recedes
'til dawn once more is ready to fight.

Like flattened tin the shiny-faced sheet
of evening sea
buckles under a last languid breeze.
Wavelets slip free from liquid's neap-net
but height-less,
white tops become ****** back again.
Like metallic shush ebb-tide's lullaby
scrapes silence
from pebble-sand's continued sighs.
Gilded froth of night's low clouds touch
orb's drop as it
sinks into dusk's merciless clutches.
Like gossamer shroud mist covers light
and day recedes
'til dawn once more is ready to fight.
