Sweetgrass

by JLR

Sun rays warm the swirling mist
carrying the heavy smell of the dank sandy beach
drifting gently inland.

Across the long expanse of dunes grows sweet grass
adorning the otherwise barren terrain in a sea of motion.

Carried on the sea breeze is the aroma of vanilla beans
rising from the flowering grass 
mixed with the slight taste of sea salt as I moisten my lips.

This collision of aroma and taste bring my thoughts into
a deep longing for a hot mug of coffee as I walk through the
succulent flowering Sweetgrass back home.
