Cliffside bungalow,
rhythms match
the smooching rocks below.

Full frontal views
amorphous silhouettes,
two sunsets.

Crumpling clouds,
reshaping sheets,
playfully racing to complete.

    1. Many thanks, Nicole. One of my favorite imaginings is living cliffside with words, waves, and maybe the occasional visitor.
