PACIFIC SPRING
The steam rises from rocky shore
Where sea-lion voices growl o’er the distant bay
A sea duck dines on mollusk store
As the fog lifts to let in dawns first golden rays
The silver cold droplets roll down
His glossy black back into the chilling flat sea
Which pushes on shore without sound
And rests ripple-less far as restless eyes may flee
Suddenly up a dark fin glare
And then breaking the silence of unbroken glass
A vapor plume rises in air
The sound crisp in the cold air of energetic blast
Mist pulls its tail over bent trees
Warming shore begins to cough and sputter with life
From gasping creatures tide recedes
And finds new tiny wonders of struggles and strife
To see such lively mystery
The soul of man delights in finding these unknown
The sun now full and blistering
Man grows fond of ways of life that are not his own
