The only ones seeing
the sun waking up the sea
hearing the birds sing
between high tide washing in
our footprints
the only evidence of where we have been
while witnessing the Earth rounding
at her horizon eyes squinting
to see more in this moment
the only souls
thankfully

So lucky. Beautiful Carrie…in all ways.
Thank you so much, Laura! I took this photograph yesterday. A beautiful fulfilling way to start Mother’s Day 🙂
You’re welcome! It sounds like you had a great day then. 🙂
Thank you, Carrie, for your ability to take photographs like this and to write mind-and-soul-catching lines like “…the Earth rounding at her horizon eye.’
Thank you, Janet. For reading and always encouraging my creative process! You are a gem of a friend.
