Kind of blue of all the blues I need
Same water, different hue.
Himself and I did nothing today.
we needed a day of nothingness. and nothingness it was.
This was the same sea as last night, but oh so different.
It's so warm today, with intermittent rain, sometimes drizzle, sometimes torrential.
I want a thunderstorm.
I told Si that once, when I was vair, vair young; after the weekly Saturday night disco - it was a night like this; the air was warm and muggy, we had danced ourselves stupid and damp inside, and the beach seemed like the best of places to go.
We managed to obtain a couple of cases of beer and we all headed to the shore. We sat on the sand, drank beer, laughed, and danced. - we stripped off and danced about the shallows. And then suddenly - a massive thunder rumble and the skies opened.
I have never seen so many people run in my life. Within seconds I was the only one left on the beach. The rain was pounding down onto the sand, I was soaking as though I had jumped in the water fully clothed.
I laughed and walked up the beach, along the prom and along the road to head home. A car stopped and the passenger shouted "do you want a lift" - the rain was still pounding down - and I laughed again and said "No thank you ".
I continued on my happy way- but the passenger got out - telling me that he didn't think I should walk alone home.
Pft.
Of course I should.
