summer, beaches,
surf and waves
lots of very fit people.
the sky’s unbelievable blue.
it’s beautiful here, relaxing,
for me.
The others?
They’re driven,
seriously keeping themselves
busy.
But it’s my day off,
so I’m enjoying it
all the way
the sea, the sun,
the waves.
*
out on the terrace of the bar & grill,
enjoying the sun
watching the waves
and they start talking right next to me.
as in, loud.
probably on a date,
sorting out deal-breakers,
pasts, presents, wishes, dreams.
I guess everyone here is out to make it big,
and if that doesn’t work out
then have a comfortable life.
it’s about dreaming big
having, keeping,
accumulating your assets,
promoting
your Self.
*
the beach, the sun,
the waves
all fantastic
really great
but they keep on talking,
listing
promoting
loud and louder
stereo surround
Her No-No list:
drugs, alcohol, smoking
His: violence
Got hit by his ex…
sounded psychotic.
Both:pet peeves
real hates
what neither would tolerate
a frantic search for similarities
but no real conversation
It’s like there are boxes
they need to check
fun, motivated
real wishes
genuine dreams
a perspective.
And people are getting a massive load of parking-tickets.
A young woman’s asking,
cajoling,
trying what she can,
but the ticket’s already written.
Apparently it costs $8
to go to the beach in NJ.
2nd date
they’re gone now
and it’s back to the beach
the sea, the waves.
It’s beautiful here
a great place to wind down
for me
the waves, the beach
the sea
really pretty.

I am really impressed with your writing skills and also with the layout on your weblog.
Is this a paid theme or did you modify it yourself?
Anyway keep up the nice quality writing, it is rare to
see a great blog like this one these days.

That is very sweet of you, thank you! I’m glad you’re enjoying threegoodwords.
Re the theme: it’s not paid, but I like dabbling in code a little :)
