Seaweed washed onto a sandy beach beside the ocean

Here for now

Whoosh


A ribbon of seaweed

arrived sideways.


No luggage.


A wave had apparently

handled transportation.


It curled around a rock

wearing a sand hat.


A gull stepped over it

carrying half a cracker.


The tide came back.


WHOOSH.


The seaweed moved

three umbrellas down.


A clam was already there

playing with a yo-yo.


Nobody exchanged names.


Another wave rolled in.


The rock disappeared.


The clam stayed.


The seaweed left.


By afternoon, a strand had wrapped

itself around a piece of driftwood.


For now.


A tiny wave reached up.


WHOOSH.



See you on the trail. 🐾


dirt first

everything else is a surprise
