The Shoreline
Waves shudder cobbles
Stone clinking stone round
Sounding as a million boys in the school yard
Flowing their marbles upon the land
Paired off in half a million matches
To win spherical, glass treasure.
Sandy flats flooded by sea
Receded in moments
Leaving the schwepervesent fizz
Of liquid molecules
Until the next salty lap.
Shale cliffs felled
Bit by knifey bit
Shucked from the land by salt and ice
Displaying trilobite treasures upon stone canvas.
