Today I read the news and then I balanced it with the poem “Thanks” by W.S. Merwin. You can read the poem here:

He ends with:

we are saying thank you

thank you we are saying and waving

dark though it is

Looking up through redwood trees at Old Mill Park
Gifts at Rodeo Beach
Low tide from the houseboat at sunrise
Animal, Driftwood, or Both
