Each Path Leads to the Ocean

Wellfleet Ponds Trail, Cape Cod, Massachusetts

A visit to kettle ponds provokes the thoughts about glacial history
  of the present, lavishly wooded place where the ponds are hidden in their own quietude.

It all began 10,000 or so years back when glaciers were in retreat,
  leaving behind the outwash of rocky debris to cover residual ice-blocks.
 As the blocks melted, the outwash deposits above them slumped and formed kettles.

 And those kettles with the bottoms below ground water level became kettle ponds,
 
  clear and fresh, reflective of their glacial ancestry. 

The World Revealed

 from Jeremy Point along the beach, Cape Cod, Massachusetts

Just one soft step into the low tide world, a wonder, a sense of seeing unseen.

 Playful forms and colors, living on both ends,
     sweeping surfaces trailing behind the ocean,
 
   and sandy shoals showing their faces.
 
 The time to be HERE...

Low Tide

Jeremy Point, Cape Cod, Massachusetts

Glossy sand, in streams and puddles, and the life left behind.
  The sea has reached the low point. 

To Jeremy Point

Great Island Trail, Cape Cod, Massachusetts

Low tide, no wind, sunny...
  Perfect time to visit Jeremy Point,
     the illusive point on Earth
   that appears and disappears in the rhythm of motions the sea knows very well.

  And just to stand on this point, I have to obey nature and be on time...
