Sunset Silhouette
It is a warm summer sunset
And here we are at the beach.
I look out upon a vast waterway
My very first look at the Atlantic Ocean.
The silhouette you see is me,
The author of this book.
Never before had I had this chance
As when I moved to Florida.
This sunset silhouette
Became the first of many,
And I found myself beach bound
As often as time would allow.
The Florida sun,
Or Michigan colors,
It doesn’t matter which.
I’m at home either place.
