Bottle of sea shore’s veiled sweetness.

A breath turns to the meadow

A breath turns to wood sage

A breath amended into happiness from the past.


Vivid pungent sea salt, seraphic.

In the meadow’s marsh surrounded by wood sage

Painting the scene of the meadow inside my mind

Clinging on to euphoric memory. 


But just as light touches 

The paradise with the sufficient moment

Turning back to the wearisome wall

The paradise of the meadow is now locked inside the mirific

The scent of the sea shore’s veiled sweetness.
