On a day sunny last week, my son took me to a beach, El Pescador, near Malibu, where he occasionally fishes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A beautiful spot, with the tide still out, allowing me to explore the rocks and tide pools and all that they house. Every new bird set off a quick heartbeat, from cormorants, to king fisher to whimbrels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A beach where benevolent pirates decided to make it easy for you to find treasure… DIG HERE!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I was particularly taken by the range of colors, not those of the sea as in Mary Oliver’s poem, but those of the rocks, fauna and flora surrounding me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reds, greens, yellows, ochres, turquoise, purple, oranges, grey and blues filled the eyes if you looked closely. Lots of pictures, then, and few words – treading with light feet and a full heart in view of nature, once again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every day the sea<\/p>\n\n\n\n

blue gray green lavender
pulls away leaving the harbor\u2019s

slick and rutted and worm-riddled, the gulls
walk there among old whalebones, the white
spines of fish blink from the strandy stew
as the hours tick over; and then<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n



far out the faint, sheer
line turns, rustling over the slack,
the outer bars, over the green-furred flats, over
the clam beds, slippery logs,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

barnacle-studded stones, dragging

pushing, wreathing together
wave and seaweed, their piled curvatures<\/p>\n\n\n\n

spilling over themselves, lapping
blue gray green lavender, never
resting, not ever but fashioning shore,
continent, everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n


And here you may find me
on almost any morning
walking along the shore so
light-footed so casual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
