Eva’s Byte #539 – Broken Beauty
An avid forager for sea glass along the shoreline of Sabin Point, a neighborhood beach located adjacent to a shipping lane, Hurricane Erin’s coastal influence prevented me from wandering on my stomping ground. The high surge (10-18 ft. waves), gusty wind, and dangerous rip currents were a deterrent.
Among last week’s treasures, I’m partial to the base of a broken bottle, green in color. Erosion had rounded what must have been a sharp and jagged ridged heel, the curved part where the body of the bottle begins to form the base.
The heel enables this broken beauty to balance on the narrow lift of my office window.
The pushup or punt, the dome-shaped recess in the center of the base, is not too opaque or pitted. This allows sun to filter through like a suncatcher.
Catch as catch can, my ambition is to forage for more bottle bases with translucent pushups, and line them up along the window lift.
In the capacity of a writer, I’m pushing along the draft of chapter 21 (1425 words thus far) of my Contemporary work in progress.
*May each of us find beauty in the mundane.
My sincere appreciation to you for reading this far.
