Cathy Ross – POET – “CROSSING OVER”

CROSSING OVER

Walking off the ferry, 

a sense of calm envelops

me. My racing thoughts 

slow their gallop, are replaced

by cries of wheeling gulls

and the smell of seaweed.

Sweeping lines of broken shells

along the beach mark yesterday’s 

high tide. A great blue heron

sits and waits. I’m home.
