For my Seaside friends

Crossing 30-A
when the morning leaks
across the sand

--when turquoise water
leaves behind a baby sand dollar

and no one else is there to find it--

Walking with coffee
when the sun first curves
across the sign
at Seagrove Market

Passing Dogwood
and Azalea—
lanes of live oaks
scattering shadow and light
(like a sun-feather boa
flipping
across
my chest)

Waiting on bare feet
for Sundog Books
to yawn awake
and let me in…
