The ocean has lost 
her baby teeth.
They're shells 
upon the shore.
And every day 
she grows new teeth.
Each night 
she loses more.
She spreads 
her teeth 
upon the beach.
I gather up a pile.
I bring them home 
so I can keep
a piece 
of ocean smile.
Happy Monday!
Shell Teeth

ReplyDeleteWhat a cool beach! I waver between white sand or the rocky beaches that you know have shells and sea glass just waiting to be discovered.
ReplyDeleteAwww, these are too cute and I love that poem, so darling.
