I spotted her again (Oct 2010)

14 Nov

I spotted her again
down on the beach
a huge rump, bending down
picking up shells
slowly

and for a moment she became
the soft brown fur
the haunches of a more than large
dog – it could be a bear –
scavenging idly

and as I looked again
she turned into a tree –
trunk and knot-tied
flaring her innards
wizened by the sea

inviting me to stare
