G o l d e n D o o r - P a r t 2

I am mesmerized by the
strength and gusto
with which the ocean pounds the coast.
Repeatedly.
Flinging forth and unfurling.
Revealing a thousand treasures at my feet:
curved pebbles, soft glass, coral-
Immigrants of the sea, eternal passengers,until i save them,
and lift them,
and place them
in the pocket of my dress.
