HPF (Heart Protection Factor)

My life is like a stroll upon the beach, as near to the ocean's edge as I can go. - Thoreau

sitting by the shore

wide brimmed, straw hat and dark shades

heart lotioned in spades

Author's Note

"The sea-shore is a sort of neutral ground, a most advantageous point from which to contemplate this world. It is even a trivial place. The waves forever rolling to the land are too far-travelled and untamable to be familiar. Creeping along the endless beach amid the sun-squall and the foam, it occurs to us that we, too, are the product of sea-slime." - Thoreau

[Ern M. Yoshimoto]

enjoyed this haiku. i see that the beach is now a motif in your collection. there is definitely something mgical about the beach and spending time there with someone special, there's nothing quite lik it.
