Ruffled

The ocean is ruffled


like a starched lacy petticoat


the breeze is warm
as I walk at the end of the day


stopping at a favourite tree
now dead
but still beautiful


against the sky and ocean
I look for whales


and spy a spout
and another


look here...

too late 



another day...

  1. It looks like another glorious day in Delwyn's world. As always, thanks for sharing. I'm a water sign and I can't get enough of the oceans/lakes/rivers. We have a river through our town and I love it. Blessings! xo

  2. No whales in the distance here, but like you I was taking photos of a dead tree yesterday, Delwyn!

  5. My late sister and I would have stopped for that tree... we used to go on tree-spotting drives. Beautiful world that you show us.

  6. Evening walk by the seaside, which is one of the things I long for. Nara is surrounded by the mountains. The bare tree in your photo is beautiful. I like to see them standing proudly without foliage exposing the trunk.
