spring rains rocks help us cross the flooded path the sleepy town wakes again – cherry blossom mountain trail taking home someone else’s rubbish through cracks and crevices bush light springs beach walk kicking up sand splays each step draining rock pools, the sea brings new salt lake water misty rocks mumble sliding off the jetty feet into fog 39 instances of plastic – lake’s edge rustle of water ducks land unseen
