I like walks on the beach
beaches in the cold are
more welcoming to me
more welcoming because
they are void
of people heat and sweat and yelling and radios and smoke and babies and diapers and rainbow umbrellas and suntan lotion that sticks to your palms and all you are left with
on the cold winter beach is
the sparse beauty of the stinging salty air
the cold fierce smell of it
and the sheen of the sparkling water
and sand endless sand
welcoming
you into the silent cold stinging salty clean beauty of the world.
