Rhythms.
Time passes
– or not.
High tide, low tide,
whisper to the the shore.
Sunrise, sunset.
The stars arc across the sky,
wishes aboard as they
fall into the sea.
High tide, low tide,
crashing on the shore.
Sunrise, wetsuit on.
Snorkeling is

Wetsuit off, go to class:
Tutor says wetsuits on.
High tide, low tide,
footprints on the shore.
Sunrise,
snorkel, lecture, volleyball,
laughter, lab, sunwarm shoulders,
snorkel again, sunset, stars.
Sleep.
High tide, low tide,
timeless as the shore.
High tide, low tide.
High tide, low tide.
High tide…
