Ocean

Last Light on Waves

September 5, 2021September 5, 2021 | Jeffrey Yamaguchi

The slow cut hits ground
on a long day unfurled
as your eyelids dance
into the collapsing glow
of last light on waves
crashed long ago

— Jeffrey Yamaguchi

Sent a Telegram to the Sea

September 4, 2021 | Jeffrey Yamaguchi

Sent a telegram to the sea
coded in wave crashes
and the ink of salty mists

Through thundering clouds
and a lightning storm
I received the sea’s reply

This Morning on the Empty Beach

September 3, 2021 | Jeffrey Yamaguchi

This morning
on the empty beach
there was a celebration
of all of us
who’ve walked its edge
alone, in our own time
We were all there
soaking up the sun
of a new day

Under a Radiant Sun

September 2, 2021September 3, 2021 | Jeffrey Yamaguchi

Under a radiant sun
with gentle waves
cooling our burn
we spent all day
searing a memory
of that time by the sea
