HS029 - poem

HS029
Inter-tidal: Rock-a-Nore

Briny, wet, rocky, bird-skied
A place of limpets, snails and weeds
Where anemones with fringes like shawls
Wave in salty pools
And seagulls fall into their own reflections
Where the sand patterns itself like mountain ranges
And clouds like wisps of hair
Cast no shadow
In this place are scattered stones
Fallen
Briny
Wet
Rocky
The sea pauses
Sucks
Shimmies

Is never silent
