After three days of brook-walking, extending my inquiry to Mere Brook’s sea-end via kayak seemed a good choice. Here, in this estuary, drifting up on the last impulse of tide, I feel changed. Yes, the immediate world shows in places. But the birds, a large, unidentified fish lolling near the surface, the slow, winding waters, say, No, let it go. And I do. ~ Sandy Stott
