You want to get the sky - a photo on Flickriver

            
just right, its gauzy blue
and soft mauve, how
it reflects upon the sea
between the boardwalk
and breakwater, shoal
farther out, sun going
down, a few gulls
prospecting the beach
along the jetty, some
wisenheimer in a blue
souped-up Chevy in
the parking lot, his
music cranked up,
a primal distress cry,
one might think, but
as the girl glides past
on her paddleboard
she seems oblivious
to all but the small wake
she cuts through the blue,
deeper than the sky
which glows with last
light, her rhythmic stroke:
reach and pull, stroke
and glide, almost sensual
as the waves break
and purl against the reef:
the scene could be 
a painting if you were
not so mesmerized,
had brush, paint and
canvas and knew how.
