summer evening
a breeze turns leaves over
abandoned book

fishermen bait the shadows
hoping to catch a fresh word

    Puerto Nuevo! When I lived in San Diego, we’d go down there from time to time to enjoy their lobster dinners. It was the best 8 dollar adventure money could buy! Although, I’m sure the demand for those lobster dinners led to overfishing.

    Even an older sight can be brought to life by the shadows.

    I so love the first one. If only there were words enough to speak of that glass of chilled white wine standing next to the book.

    Oh those escaping words… requires a dreamweaver’s net to catch I think
