bright horizon line—

joyous shouts

from the arriving ferry

28 July 2026 (an osprey nest)

an osprey nest

in the channel marker . . .

luffing sails

21 July 2026 (bay crossing)

bay crossing —

an eagle lifts off

a half-tide ledge

13 July 2026 (the ferry’s list)

the ferry’s list

as we pass the ocean sunfish

following seas

2 July 2026 (noon ferry)

noon ferry

lion’s mane jellyfish

bobbing in our wake

20 June 2026 (following seas)

following seas . . .

drawn-out goodbyes

on the crowded wharf

17 June 2026 (porpoises to port)

porpoises to port . . .

the horizon holds back

a line of clouds

15 June 2026 (foggy crossing)

foggy crossing

yellow swirls of pollen

proof of land

15 May 2026 (rainy crossing)

rainy crossing

a stream of sea ducks

follows the horizon

19 November 2025 (Fata Morgana)

Fata Morgana

the ferry crosses

to a floating world

5 October 2025 (a friend waves)

A variation on yesterday’s haiku

a friend waves

from the departing ferry . . .
