lillian the home poet

i.
sunrise red softens
sky stains blur gorgeous pastels
tint sea pearly-pink

ii.
curmudgeon sea gull
squawking, scolding, guarding catch
flaps wings, screaming MINE

iii.
battle escalates
stealthy no more, gulls swoop in
jealousy explodes

iv.
garnet red sunset
crimson canopy save gull
streaking across sky

Photos from the past two weeks in Provincetown….all as seen from the deck of our annual rental. No photo-shopping….these are the real colors as we saw them.
Ptown, at the very tip of Cape Cod, has been a muse for many an artist as well as literary giants including Mary Oliver, Tennessee Williams, Arthur Miller, Norman Mailer, Eugene O’Neill, and John Dos Passos.
