Words wither in the air
as silence slithers between us.
The waves wash over where we sat
as rigid rocks cut water raw.
A seagulls silhouette splayed across the sky
carries a creature so soon to be crushed.
A hermit hiding in his home
pops up out of his puddle,
fleeing back when a feather flutters down
nearly nicking his new shell.
The day grows dark and dim
as rain runs down the rustling leaves.
Light house lights litter the night
showing sheltered shadows.
A bush bows to the blustering breeze,
as the smell of the salty sea settles.
While choppy waters churn violently
when wind whips around us.
Droplets tip toeing across the tide
visibly vibrant than vanishing.
The boats buckle under the beatings
as docks drown diving under desolate waters.
We walk away wincing,
at the last glance at the grey grizzly night.
