A Poem by Louis Marvin

Waves

                   They say ssshhhhhhh, constantly quieting on the shore

                             White noise elite,

                                                among all white noise

                             A thousand hellos wash ashore-----

                                      Strong, happy alohas

                                                          Crash the beach,

                                                                   Crash the party

                             They stay a few seconds,

                                                Cry tears into the sand

                            

                             Then meekly and weakly

                                      Say aloha-goodbye

                   That same wave will never be back again

 

louis marvin is a wandering island wizard on the shore, in the mountain jungle and swimming at the reef

blessed by this tropical island and scorched by desert sun

friend of the gecko, roadrunner and gila monster
