Wrack Zone

Crane Beach, Massachusetts

On the verge of the sea... where ebbing tides leave the canvas of streams and sea-plants,
   and Piping Plovers time their visits to forage for food...
   ... this is called a "wrack zone"...
   ... sounds like a zone where things destroyed are deposited,
         and "things destroyed" in human jargon are the things one can simply throw away...

Looking at these sea-plants and those nimble birds,
   I am enchanted by the vitality of the whole scenery,
     and I simply cannot call this world a "wrack zone"...

Crane Beach: ... on the verge of the sea...

Crane Beach: ... where tides leave the canvas of streams and sea-plants...

Crane Beach: ... and Piping Plovers time their visits...

Crane Beach: ... this is called a wrack zone...

Crane Beach: ... looking at those sea-plants...

Crane Beach: ... washed over...

Crane Beach: ... and nimble Piping Plover...

Crane Beach: ... I cannot call this world a wrack zone...
