AT THE BEACH

Piet Hein and I went to the beach in the morning. We walked towards the north, it was low tide and the gulls stood on the breakwater waiting for their meal.
Then we heard someone shouting, and when we looked we saw Mischa coming towards us. Hi, what a nice surprise.
She had come back from her training and had spotted us already from the high standpoint at the dunes.
So we walked together. Piet Hein took a dive in the waves.
In the afternoon Mischa and I cycled to the center, the World Press Photography exposition being held in the atrium of the town hall.
We met her friend there, and now they are both cooking to make an asian meal for us all.

My haiku:

Pretty blue water
Amazing blue sky, the gulls
Completed the scene

And the quote by Elizabeth Bowen in The Death of the Heart (1938):

If you look at lifeone way, there is always cause for alarm,
