A weathered post, a gull
and a brisk sea breeze.
Ah! I wonder what he sees?
The crashing surf?
The salty spray?
The waters as they churn?
Or perhaps he is watching
a flying, crying tern?
The roll of a porpoise?
The fin of a dreaded shark?
Or does he see a different world
than either you or I?
His vision tuned to those things
That will for him, his life fulfill!
A weathered post, a gull
and a brisk sea breeze.
Ah! I wonder what he sees?
Proceed to the next nature station
