DeaneTR – Mailman Ocean
We finally found the giant dock someone
saw that we couldn’t find and now we found
What once was ocean meeting a
land covered in logs and
large woody debris
is now eroded barren
hillside beneath
upslope canopy
No giant logs left
other than
a dock…
that washed
up from a long
ago Tsunami
Yet way more long ago the
oceans wrote letters
for centuries to send as
wood that’s fallen
as ancient trees
as love letters mailed
in 2 years travel
across the sea…
covering
the fertile
soils under
the upslope
canopy.
