In recognition of Poetry Month, and to celebrate our treasure trove of Orcas Island poets, Orcas Issues is pleased and honored to offer daily poetry during April.

LITTORAL INTERPRETATION
by Lin McNulty

Last night’s perigee moon
Brings morning low tide,
exposing my Salish Sea shore.

A breeze interweaves
pungent tidal pool fragrance
with scent of lilac.
