Blanket Down

R Martin Basden is able to capture a moment and bring it to us whole, a wonderful skill for a poet! He is an Albright Poet from Virginia and the most recent poem of his that you have read here was Broken, Haiku of Injured Relationships. When you read this you will feel like you're on a beach. And you'll be disappointed to discover you're at work instead.  

Blanket Down
By R Martin Basden
Beach sleeping
Totally warm
Licking breeze
Tickling sand
Gull calls
Roaring waves
Almost dreams
Muffled voices
Gritting thumps
Tanning scent
Cold droplets
Breath taking
Raucous laughter
Blinding light
Clearing head
Smiling friends
Game declined
Drift again
Beach sleeping
