MoP 13: Summer town



this early morning
there are leaning boards
flagged towels
front door thongs
but the town is eerie quiet

It is a held breath
not an emptiness quiet

Like an anthill
not yet disturbed
all it takes is a minute
a second
to commence the hullabaloo
of this perfect beach day

'It is a held breath' - just perfect. I've been to that town, seen those thongs, been part of the hullabaloo. Thanks Claire,
