Coastal currents creating

Rip-tides of aqua and turquoise.

Rolling waves crashing in white

Flames on black jagged lava.

Brown seed pods bobbing

Buoyant in white effervescent froth.

Lucent crabs piercing grayish

Bubbles on moist brown sand.

Hibiscus flutter maddeningly

Red under swaying palms.

Rainbow-colored macaws raining

Almonds from a green canopied sky.

Glistening grey boa gliding

Silently in simmering sunlight.
