The Morning Swim

by Ken W Simpson

The newly resurrected sun
glows and softens
yesterday's sundered sand
dishevelled and lumpy
like an unmade bed
so tread circumspectly
and cautiously
towards the lapping sea
where corrugations
are strewn with tiny shells
and glutinously transparent
jellyfish blobs
as diminutive fish dart past
posies if pale green weed
below a golden tapestry of rhomboids
glimmering through saline prisms
amorphously dissolving
in deeper water.
