THE EDGE OF OCEAN
on this spume-soaked beach 
mist-driven combers curl over sand
through the haze of wet light
my footprints fade under foam

laced fringe stolen by another wave
the grey turn of water over water
slides with the moon’s tug
back to an earlier thousand years
whose pebbles and shells
roll eternities
over and over my future
The Willow Tree Girl for ages 7-11 … Weston doesn’t miss a beat as she untangles past and present, ghosts, missing treasure, and her heroine’s longing for success.
