Kolp

Yellow, a little girl, said:


in your pocket he be!


pull it aboard,

prithee, show me!


lob, lob

my tiny kolp-

i drew it, can't you see?


Teal, an older boy, leaned in,


to her shell

the one in her littler hand


heeding, heeding


from the conch came a far away wind and siren's giggles, giggles


he started, 

she tittered


then went plof

plof, plof


muffled
