April in the Golden Isles
-Costal
The town awakened by hot sun,
Girls in bikinis & men
drinking beer
A total sum of a beach town
Picturesque & alive w/
ocean air
Visitors welcome – some stay
Days mimic childhood, Long
walks
On the beach, pier & thru
little stores
Youth not faded away – but
ripe.
The juices saturate all form
Bursting at the seams w/ life
When night descends upon us
I sit in CrabDaddy’s
drinking
For free w/ the locals –
Eating
The fresh catch of the day
As drink goes down, stories
flow
Pictures are painted and
framed
And in my third eye, just
around midnite,
When I walk under the burnt
moon,
Listening to waves rock,
Laughter of friends around a
beach fire,
Wind delivering sweet Golden
Isle smells ,
I know I wouldn’t mind
stayin’ for a while
But gotta go – gotta drive
on –
Forced to bottle time w/ words
