7/8

Resting in soft late evening breezes, 
a deep front rolling in overhead.
Ah, to live so close to tidal waters, 
spindrifty sounds, dewy salt air.

A deep front rolling in overhead, 
pattering rain near, thunder distant. 
Spindrifty sounds, dewy salt air,
rhythms lulling over into sleep.

Pattering rain near, thunder distant, 
turn facing the freshening winds.
Rhythms lulling over into sleep
darkening skies past sun’s bright heat.

Turn facing the freshening winds,
ah, to live so close to tidal waters.
Darkening skies past sun’s bright heat,
resting in soft late evening breezes.
