—for Stephanie & Grace and all sisters standing at the water's edge
A great body of water
touches
unites
the shores where we stand
here in the high desert
when I climb the highest peaks
I feel the ancestral ocean
I see great sea floor
on its slopes
scattered volcanic rocks
stone faces of long silent giants
the waters of the pacific
reach me here
I stand on this shore
feeling its other shores
where my sisters stand
gazing out on the open waters…
—Lorena
