A Seat dedicated to Jacquie
memories float with the tide
we shared so many ideas
we shared so many hours
we reminisced over coffees
planned laughed discussed how
we shared a love of this land
now our adopted country and
now most definitely our home
our poetry reflected this love
of the land and its coast … then
spurred on by your personal deadline
poetry poured from your pen
left in books for us to read when
we can no longer meet but
I can and do sit here and remember
Life's a Beach
