We were at Ucluelet on the West Coast of Vancouver Island a couple of years ago and the magic of the place stays with me …
BEACH SCENE
white light streams through firs
waves crash through constant wind
mist swallows self and surfers
as a skim of water gathers clouds
into stretched wet sand
a rippled and gullied acreage
printed by our morning run
plotted by stranded jellyfish
occasional kelp tangles broken shells
where a colony of gulls nudge mussels
this ocean trail cut by light
through sun-struck evergreens
Frame and The McGuire – ‘… a gentle yet striking novel about the way our perception influences our judgement of others.’ Amy Mathers. For ages 8-13 … published by Tradewind Books available on Amazon or your local bookstore.
We love Ucluelet, hope to be going back this Summer.
It’s a great place to visit. Have fun there!
