2 October 2022 (high surf)

high surf

the morning perfume

of the last wild rose

1 October 2022 (first frost)

first frost

a flicker perches

on a propane tank

30 September 2022 (storm surge)

storm surge—

a passing eagle

lifts all the gulls

29 September 2022 (flight calls)

nocturnal flight calls

horizon to horizon

the Milky Way

28 September 2022 (smoothest)

the smoothest beach stone

seals waiting offshore

for low tide

27 September 2022 (late afternoon)

late afternoon light . . .

butterflies bend

the goldenrod

26 September 2022 (sparrow)

a sparrow grabs

the last ripe raspberries . . .

southerly winds

25 September 2022 (end of summer)

the end of summer

a question mark

punctuates the asters

24 September 2022 (seaweed)

heaps of wet seaweed

mark the high tide line

autumn gale

23 September 2022 (flight calls)

flight calls overhead . . .

my long shadow

touches the sea

22 September 2022 (storm)

storm surge

gulls ride the waves

of thunder
