maggie and milly and molly and may
went down to the beach (to play one day)and maggie discovered a shell that sang
so sweetly she couldn’t remember her troubles, andmilly befriended a stranded star
whose rays five languid fingers were;and molly was chased by a horrible thing
which raced sideways while blowing bubbles; andmay came home with a smooth round stone
as small as a world and as large as alone.For whatever we lose (like a you or a me)
it’s always ourselves we find in the sea
-e.e. cummings


It’s falling a cold, steady rain in Atlanta tonight, and I’m dreaming of warmth and sun and sand. Anyone out there dreaming with me?

robbie hickman - here in va beach, it’s raining sideways & my trashcan just sailed down the street. dreaming of not only summer, but a dry yard and 2 dogs without muddy feet.
Angel Pope - Whenever I am feeling sad, mad, gloomy or puny, I dream of being on a beach. Alone. Just listening to it happen.
