of the same sea

by Karyn Huntting Peters

waves of the same sea,
of the same salt water,
from the same sand and clouds,
cried the same tears.
waves out of time,
crossing in the night over and over again,
shores haunted by moist sand and foam,
strewn with seaweed left behind
and solitary starfish left for dead
on the slippery tidepool rocks
