Seawall Ascension

One step, two steps, breathe - repeat.

Runners, boots, flip-flops, naked soles;

Bike wheels, skateboard wheels, stroller wheels;

Rollerblades; old smiles, young smiles,

Baby smiles -

Seawall meditation traffic.

One step, two steps, breathe - repeat.

Ocean calling card, salted tidal gifts;

Shell, rock, driftwood -

Temporary patterns of sand.

One step, two steps, breathe - repeat.

Flanked wet and dry; blue, green;

Laughter, contemplation -

Winding seawall, midwifes new thought.

One step, two steps, breathe - repeat.

- Kathleen Katon Tonnesen, 2019.
