(I'm going to still try for those 30 poem starts I wanted in April, even if it takes me until the end of May, or June...)
They said you would be there
(And you were)
Whale eye clocking
The coastal demise
Where your saltwater
Mouth will be buried
Next to no one
The coral waving
Ashes to acid
The seagulls craning
Their necks side to side

"Ashes to acid' - I love it.
Thanks, Clayton :-)
"Where your saltwater
Mouth will be buried" is my favorite part. Seagulls and their necks side to side may be a funny image for this beautiful small poem...
I agree with both of 'em.
Thanks, ladies. I think you're right about the ending. I'll work on it.
