Spiral

in

the 

garden 

of the ocean,

god, the great artist
 made spiraled 

chambers:

homes, 

havens, 

households.

in the garden 
of the 
ocean,

swirls of china 

and pottery,

each shaped with care,

painted with browns

with pinks,

with pearl-essence, 

each a hiding 
place

in the sand

and foaming

water each, 

a work of 

heart.
