the spirit runs, intermittently



Water’s my will and my way,
And the spirit runs, intermittently,
In and out of the small waves,
Runs with the intrepid shore birds─
How graceful the small before danger!

These marvelous birds were dancing for me at Ocean Beach in San Francisco.

    Hi Duff, You were busy posting this week, while I was lazy! These birds look choreographed. I like the reflections.
