#california #westmarin #spring #wildflowers (at Point Reyes National Seashore)
Oh to be an oysterman!
Foggy dawns,
cold fingertips,
wet socks,
knife on the hip,
bivalves on the table;
shiny seal pates
puncturing the bay’s stillness
with snorting exhales;
smiling pelicans,
beseeching gulls,
preening loons,
manic mures,
and thousands of egrets
dotting sandbars
like oversized pearls on a
Marin housewife’s necklace;
black ducks
wings spread towards their Mecca,
absolving themselves
of the inherent nature
of their wetness.
