walk on the shore
~
ignition
Sea-rocket (Cakile edentula Hook.)
~
clumps of Sea-rocket
are splashes of lime on sand
missiles from lavender flowers
~
pepper to tongue
pungent breath of Cakile
cardamom and caraway
~
flavour our laughter
giggles of gulls cross sober sand
intervention in sluggish lives
~
launches from Cape Canaveral
moon-walking on the beach
splash-downs in Sargasso Seas
~
most days are moth-eaten –
paper cuts, missives, e-mails to answer
problems, resolutions without teeth
~
the seawind smooths its sand
begs for someone to take a stick
scratch out a love song
