Storm

Waves crashed against the rocky shoreline spraying upward onto the orange streaked stone.  Rough vegetation struggled to keep a foothold in minute crevasses in the midst of wind and surf.  The call of a seagull searching for dinner rose above the din and broke upon the balcony door dispersing in a muted cry to the couple within.

“It looks cold and lonely out there.”  She said standing at the window.


“All the more reason to stay inside.”  He said, his arms around her.  She leaned back, letting herself get swept up in the wildness of the storm building around them.
