- "And my heaven, a chair by the hearth..."
- "Into a river grown brighter than the sky..."
- "A green salad of bottle shards and kelp..."
- "Something in sea-smoothed stones..."
- "They briefly awaken to the rhythmic rumble..."

- "Backseat-cozy in footed pajamas..."
- "You must be a child to find the hiding places..."
- "Bee-touched or butterfly-worthy..."
- "Lining the edge of the jetty / With shells and sea glass..."
