On Christmas Day, Looking At The Sea

The sea
is electric blue
and the cicadas keep me company
whilst the sensible
leave the midday sun
and head for cover.

Everything is high def,
every grain of sand heightened
the crisp white ocean foam
and the seagulls standing in my footprints
leading to the water's edge.

There's no one here
but me,
and my enjoyment of the elements
the oven hot breeze
the salty air.

But
I'm enjoying it enough
for all my absent friends

sending them all my
Christmas love
as I gaze
at the endless horizon.
