Earth Pathways Showcase

razor edged
segmented armour
barnacles
immoveable grip
hunkered low on rocks

warm shallows
a scurrying tribe
hermit crabs
winkle shelled youngsters
gleaning particles

hung under rocks
anemone blobs
come to life
with rising waters
tentacles dancing

oily fur
tufted salty wet
otter cubs
writhing and wrestling
careless in their play

sand hoppers
snuggle beneath weed
disturb them...
leaping anarchy!
fleas of the shoreline
