LOW TIDE AT NIGHT


LOW TIDE AT NIGHT

Mounds of Seaweed whisper.
Salt seeps into the sand.
Limpets browse, scrape tracks along boulders
Etching grey scrolls into dark algae.

Lugworms hide in mud caves
Marked by coils and holes
That open and close in measured time;
Seven gulps of air till the flood tide.

Circled by bladder-wrack
Rock pools are black opals.
Pebbles and shells discarded by waves
Freckle a beach bare of daytime hordes.

Far off, asleep, the sea:
Lights mark another shore.
Meantime, a crab waits his hardening shell
Under a blanket of whispered seaweed song.
