The warm sand at dusk

by DRM

As dusk falls, the lights on the rides illu­mi­nate and silence seeps into the day. The waves are low. The moon sits high in the sky, aloof but com­fort­able. The night gains momen­tum on the boardwalk.

You sit on the beach and plunge your hands deep in the sand. The sur­face is cool. Just below, the sand is still warm from the mid-day sun.
