Coastal Wanderers

entry picture

in the blaze of the summer heat, drips

of sweat rippled down our smooth skin backs.

 

we set out for adventure along the Pacific coast,

the four of us squeezed in a compact sedan.

 

sisters laughing, shouting, nowhere else to be.

engaging winding hair-pin turns, honking,

 

speeding, and slamming on the brakes

as the afternoon sun scorched the town.

 

we reveled in the sights, mountainsides, sea

cliffs, the endless shore; such views we'd never

 

seen before or soon forget. we eventually reached

the city of angels, the city lights; the most memorable

 

trip of our lives sailed through those late nights. we 

often walked in a daze, both night and day. 

 

a trip we still laugh about, the screams belting out

winding down the coast, and how close we were

 

to the end of it all...
