Red Tide at Night

by Britt Zimmerman

Red tide is glowing green tonight.
The waves are crashing like a lions roar.
The feeling of amber so strong it finds taste in the mouth.
Shiny black night, thick like salt on the skin
White gold moon hangs low in the sky
testing the water with its toes
and spreading its color
like flame against a mirror...

Love the combination of concrete and abstract imagery in this. Truly evocative!
