Salt water
Fresh water
Fresh salt water
Landing on sand
With bladderwrack
With finer seaweed
Seaweed as fine as cotton
Seaweed as fine as wool
As fine as that line you wrote
Out by the loch
As fine as that line you wrote
In the cottage garden
As fine as that line you wrote
Aboard the rowing boat
All of your life in touch with water
Your hands in the streams
Catching sticklebacks, building dams
Your bare body afloat in the ocean
Feeling life, spreading salt
Your eyes cast out over the bay
Thinking of, yes, mostly thinking of
