Beach Babe by Frances Macaulay Forde

Rippled by rolling heart-waves, 

inexorably advancing -

constantly, 

consistently -

towards our Us.

This resurgence, 

pounding our shifting shores, 

destroying sandy barriers...

A rapid relentless tide, 

washing, 

wiping 

our beaches clean

to start anew...

Far too strong and

absolutely, 

positively, 

undeniably

irresistible.
