With my right hand
I have scooped up white virginal sand.
With my left,
sand as black as an evil soul,
reduced to dust in the furnaces of hell.
Each, from the same? beach!
I have watched fairy penguins
take their midnight waddle,
out of a sea,
calling to their young/
Counted the clawed imprints
left, on that beach.
Fed the wild red kangaroo,
hand to mouth, also on a beach,
with shadowy evening forest
as backdrop.
Come between a rock sunning,
majestic sea-lion and the ocean.
Almost dying, on a beach,
consequence of thoughtless,
audacity!
Sat on a fallen, tropic tree trunk,
next to my love.
Drinking cold mexican cerveza,
droplets wetting the sands,
of that beach.
It being my fondest memory,
of beaches!
