transient footsteps


the waves wash


                    over
and under


          the waves wash


                                                                       
red stone worn


smooth and wet


                   thin
layers ancient


lifting away floating




                         away dinosaur track


now bottom once top


till ages filled


                   steps
with silt


will my print


                          fill
erode reveal


                     smooth
and red


            wet
sandstone worn


                                                                          
the waves washing


                      under
and over


                                                                                
the waves wash


              over
and under


the waves wash
