A rocky shore
A place to share
With whales, wallabies, lizards
Not mine alone
Put aside thoughts of control
No limits of rocky shore
Lines of whales
Twisted gum trees
Yellow flower vines
No limits to sharing
Freedom of small children
Gleeful exchange with wallabies
Walking by twos low tide
Colourful hats on beach
Joyful seen from above
Underwater
There is so much
we do not see
We watch the waves
Maybe the whales breaching
But what I want to see
is there
underneath
demanding I change
my frame of reference
from warmth to chill
from light to muted
Adjust your body
Adjust your eyes
Head down
Keep looking
immersed
in water environment
as you never are
in air
walking standing breathing
seeing objects colours
floating in the ocean
Adjust
Accept
Lose track
So that
Astonished
When you raise your head
out of the water
the world is still there
And you will return
On the rocky coast
Sharing love of place
Of sea of whales of trees
Holding it close
Remembrance
On the rocky coast
Whale excitement
Shared with strangers
Spreading love
Expanded possibility
Tracking the Human: nobody's a long time
