Surf Power Laguna Painting

Laguna Beach longing Laguna Beach, I’m longing for highways that fade to sandy sidewalks and sunlight pouring down like golden rain in metallic hues of bronze and copper on skin softened by seabreeze and saltwater waves edged with lace-fine foam and artists who capture it all hanging above time-worn leather or galleries with auras of glass prisms and silver chrome vignettes of gas stations and traffic and crowded oceanside scenes suspended in time a sugar cone heaped with lemony gelato made salty sweet with Johnny Rocket’s fries a girl’s chlorine-bleached butternut macadamia hair dripping in coconut oils and pure light saturated pastel skies raked with spiderwebbing branches and stormed through with eucalyptus leaves she’s artlessly hanging of trees and becomes breathless smiles and bruised knees and one of those artists is brushing gold on plexiglass and she stands, coral pink flecked palms and sea salt caramel swells and chocolate-coated fleshy masses I’m longing for her
