Even silence has

its charm entangled in the

calm shores of the Gulf.

Waiting for the turn

of a creeping wind’s conquer;

boarding up my heart.

The Gulf of Mexico
 The Gulf Of Mexico

Velvety white beaches 
as far as I can see
Nothing much grows right here
but yes, there's one palm tree

The sand it was so fluffy
like powdered sugar sweet
It felt like giant pillows
underneath my feet

The water is so salty 
and it feels very soft
Birds...

Gulf of Mexico Music.
With a single note it begins
That enticement so alluring
Enveloped amidst the cadence
And rhythm of a sailing vessel
Gently rocking in the calm swells
Capturing my spirit in its endless cycle
Where the iambus waves whisper me
And ardent gulf breezes enrapture
Opening my eyes after that moment

Earthday/Gulf of Mexico
Celebrate!!
Oil for all!!
Bring a cup 
Have your fill!!
Black gold for all!!

Ready to fry!
Black moon sand is

Lingering on
Alaska's shore
Twenty-one years later
Clean up of the

Dear politicians please help!!!

The oil still flows like black death!...

feeling crazy over lonely in
the breeze of the sea...
Somewhere down on THE
GULF OF MEXICO, seems as
tho everybody...

To the Gulf of Mexico (To Be Renamed Gulf of Dead Silence)
Sweet Empty gulf farewell
all the animals I've known so well
adrift among the lifeless waves
corroding in the grim sun's rays.

Oh the dim murk reeks of death
the odors cause my nose distress
I'll never see the water blue
consumed forever by BP's Crude.



- To every animal that has swam,...

Premium Member Dolphins alongside a Fishing Boat
Old boat, time-worn path,
Dolphins glide through emerald waves,
Leaping side by side—
Their joyous dance in the mist,
Paints the sea with morning bliss....
