Listening to ocean waves on CD inspired this one. :)


Poem Artwork


The beach hisses like
a cat with each pass
of water that flows
back and forth over
its feet; it arches
its back in protest,
but can't escape the
rising of the tide.

(c) 2006, Karla Dorman.

Very unique and well crafted write; your mind sounds like it has wandered back to Cozumel and Playa Del Carmen; perhaps another cruise is in order?? *grins* Very well done; enjoyed this one so much; brava!

I think my favorite place is the beach too, Karla, or anywhere near water. It seems that there is a peace that makes you relax when you're either in the water, or just relaxing by its shore. Thanx for sharing.

May the Lorsd Jesus bless you, and those whom you love, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your little sister, Barbie

Wonderful simile... brilliant, in fact, because it is a unique comparison that conjures the character of both perfectly - and yet how different could they actually be?? And cat's, as you point out, HATE water!! A delightful cameo is painted in such few lines. Totally excellent, Karla. TY Kate xx

Karla, this is superb...interesting that you have chosen the cat in metaphoric comparison as I am reminded of "Fog" and "Little Cat Feet"...excellent choice.

Surf's up in this vivid treat to the senses of sound and sight, makes me long for a few more weeks when it should be warm enough here to head for the sand and surf.
