hydrangea bushes show off their big, blue blooms a praying mantis beach body surfing tumbling in fierce waves landing on packed sand scents wafting from the snack shack craving hot dogs seaside beach club oysters and tequila drunk on love walking by the bay a cast of fiddler crabs scuttle in beach grass beach at dusk thick fog envelops me like a shroud fireflies flicker here and there like tiny diamonds
