2520


Everywhere we carried it. In the synchronicity of smiles, in sand between wet toes and dry toes, in the sparkling clear water of Grand Anse; an ocean span from home. It was light, it was bubbly, it was heady, it was exciting, it was blissful. Yes we carried it, holding it between each of our hearts. Our love. Sometimes the jealous sunshine can drive lovers to huddle in the shade of sea grape trees.

Bye Feburary, we luv U!
Season of somber repenting days now. Season of Lent

carnival quiet-
Sunday morning before
all the mayhem

*
dull still clouds
anticipate revelry
in sunburst hours

*
when at the beaches
tumbling waves to welcome
the bacchanal shy
