Oceanic Play: A Sip Of Summer All Year Long

Jumpy jump ocean. "Daddy, let's go back to the beach," he says, "we can run freely on the warm sand, build sculptures and swim in the refreshing ocean." My son and I. The best connection ever. I adore the privilege of being a parent. Too much love never spoils children. Children become spoiled when we substitute presents for presence. Oceanic play–crafted with pride at San Francisco's iconic Aquatic park. 

A vast lion
with strong feelings
on west coast
fresh, monied, 
handsome, healthy
exuberant, extrovert, 
third generation only child
a peaceful rebel

An ocean rumbles
where sharks can be found
every wave must be earned
possibilities of perfection
cornerstone of society
surrounded with love
as the stars and galaxies
that rest above

A dog barks
to a false witness
most things in life change
some don't
someone is either friendly or enemy
their road mirrors the ocean
our road never really ends
endless play
living in abundance
no trespassing.
