Ocean lullaby

Today’s poem, bubbled out of the crab holes on Kilifi beach with the incoming tide, as I took my first walk last night, after a beach-less year

Ocean Lullaby

.

First walk on sun-set beaches,

Shadows stretch on sand,

Waves grey with coming sleep

Softly roll inland.

.

Warm wind my skin caresses,

Sighs in lullabies,

Inside exhaustion stretches,

I’ll sleep so deep, tonight.
