Pools and Pockets

​

​

Among the rocks, when the sea subsides,

Treasures remain, what will you find?

Water deep, water still, inviting the fingers,

Curiosity to fill.

​

A life all its own, each pool contains,

Crabs and creatures in their own domain.

A starfish, a mussel, a barnacle too,

Weed of the sea, a snail, shell of blue.

​

Look with delight, look with care,

You might even find something to share.

The gift of the sea, these pools give to you,

Come, see them again, discover anew.
