Shoals

A trip to the Isles of Shoals
September, after the hurricanes
warm tropical water
sea foam bright, southern
a different smell that day
of other islands
Rocks pumiced by the Atlantic
poison ivy free to grow
deepening burgundy now
before winter
lunch on the rocks, watch the waves
crash at the rising of the tide
salt air
seals on the next island
ready for our cameras on the return trip
a sunset on the ocean
long shadows
a diving gull
undulating reflections
