Pensacola Gulf Winds

truelove_beachI often wish I could enjoy myself like a normal person without having to look for deeper meaning in everything I do or every place I visit. For instance, a cold beer can just be a refreshing cocktail and the seashore can represent nothing more than a day at the beach. 

If you ever get a chance to experience the Gulf shoreline, you won’t be disappointed, it is an overlooked jewel of the U.S. coastline. Go, let it loose, enjoy the simple things in life at face value. But don’t be surprised if it inspires you to create something from nothing.

 

Take the car out riding
A full moon is bright
Drive down to the end of the road
Where the water touches the night

It’s too hot for sleeping 
For toss and turning around
I might not find an angel down here
But I know I will hear the sound

When them Pensacola Gulf winds blow
Don’t them Pensacola Gulf winds blow
Sometimes I think I hear them
Call my name but I just don’t know
Sometimes I think I hear them tell me
It’s easy just to let it go

Moonlight off the water
Them pirate ships can’t hide 
I never got where I wanted to go 
But it sure was one hell of a ride

I never thought of leaving
A note to say where I am
But you’re smart, you’ll figure it out
And like most folks won’t give a damn

Birdwatching







Thinking of you and your mini Hubble while spying.

          A heron hunts 

                    What low tide reveals around sandbars emerging 

Like slick whale humps as the Gulf recedes 

          From the Mississippi shoreline, 

                    Cat Island stretches out, purring on the horizon.
