Ocean Haiku by Joshua St. Claire

 

Aysegul Aytoren

Ocean Haiku

rough seas

the sound of the Atlantic

reclaims its sand


ghost crab voice

echoing through the nightstrand

Acubens and Tegmen


wind-swept juniper the shape of a wave


the sound of the moon rising in the gale-tossed sea


gale warning

the celadon foam

on the sand


laughing gull waves the canceling out 


inner space the wavelengths of the Atlantic


low tide

sanderlings trace

the Spiral of Archimedes


a boy

into gullcolor

seafoam


the way the waves break gullcry
