earth note 317

dark shadows
shallow water
sponges tremble
just below the body
of the kayak
occasionally some grunts
school
near the culvert
white ibis
dilly-dally nearby

a perfect angle of sunlight
lights up the ocean floor
manta ray quivers out
just ahead of my approach
waits
slips ahead again
waits

a hand
has opened
i follow
