Witless Bay Trail

Delightful trail
winding along ancient shorelines,

through forest,
                       above cliffs,
                                          across brooks
                                                                 emptying
                                                                 themselves
                                                                 into
                                                                 the
                                                                 sea.

Ground brush
sweet to smell.

Paths
full of recent rain.

Ocean spray
gentle in the air

the fruit of a pounding sea.

Across the horizon
islands of sanctuary
for birds
of every kind.

Endless ocean
filled with life and mystery.

A walking meditation
for the journey
into God.
