Meandering mumblings…

Thoughts while walking on the beach...


Is there any meaning here...I doubt it...





Passing the time while walking the beach,

Trying to stay to the ocean within arms reach,

Jamming on the brakes but making no screech,

Pausing a moment to pull off a leech…

 

Meandering mumblings,

Thunderstorm rumblings,

Kids on the beach tumbling,

Life seen as old we get is humbling…

 

Bright sun hurts the eyes,

Getting up from lying in the sand creates sighs,

Never do I ever wear ties,

Sometimes though do I to others lie…

 

Mumblety-peg,

A game of concentration,

Same as can be thought chess,

Or watching passing females chests…

 

Crying out in desperation,

Breathing is also respiration,

Thoughts such as these can cause agitation,

Time is interminable, better to request from God,

                          ...deportation…

Your beach thoughts are quite revealing. You're not ready to throw in the towel yet.

You sure are getting skinny. Better stock up on the munchies.

You're not eating leeches again, are you? Neither Ma nor Buddha would approve.

Sometimes it is just right to watch life and to reflect upon it... ...as it seems to me you have done here. Thanks for sharing, Ed. Love and peace,

Leeches???? Man have you confused the ocean for a muddy creek?? I must agree given the choice between chess and chest observation the latter governs. Patrick

And you don't drink? Darling little ditty and beautiful picture.

I'm big on concentration, Buddy.
