Returning to the sea, to the water – v2

Returning to the sea, the water,
feeling the sunlight upon my back,
the roar of the waves, crashing,
as the high tide fell away…
 
They came out to greet me,
a repeating pattern, welcoming me,
lines of pelicans above the houses,
ribbons across the sky...
 
Some strands were four of them,
others thirty pelicans coursing,
cutting through the moment,
greeting me once again…
 
Another pelican morning,
the dance of the pelicans above me,
refreshing me in this moment,
washing me in infinite grace…
