Beaches (The City)

Beaches (The City)

They bask on her shores

beneath golden rain.

Children laugh contagiously

in their play.

Water laps the shoreline

as bodies bathe.

Wind blowing breath on burning skin.

A hum

can be heard

cutting through

unconscious connotations.

It buries itself beneath

the cries of the gulls

and crashing waves.

She sings softly

in our ears

never letting us forget

her voice.
