New Jersey Siesta
wind chimes recollect
Long Beach Island salt breezes
off the Atlantic
mid-day sun and heat
prickly sand cool showers
our washed tanned bodies humming
beneath the ceiling fan

hmmm that feels so good . . .
I love this — from the title until the end!
Effective use of white space!
I can feel the shore – and taste the salt water taffy! Thanks.
Love the way this poem looks on the page – like wind chimes! You can really see and feel the beach!
