Who built this little castle of driftwood on the sands of the 90 Mile Beach, silvering limbs sought of equal length, to create an airy teepee? A thing of beauty, an achievement, an installation made by man or sea? Moulded and shaped by a king tide on full moon? Today it is here, tomorrow gone. Achievements, like possessions, are transient.

I will Jane and you too. At last it is raining. Looked like another drought was on the way but we just got 33mls- now that is something to celebrate. Hope you got some rain too, F

I love your picture and the accompanying text is very thought provoking… especially your last line got me thinking.. “Achievements, like possessions, are transient” … would that apply to the achievements of the heart and spirit too?

No, but then they are such personal things, they are crried along the way annd then, I guess they vanish in time too.

Lovely image! I recently posted about a driftwood sculpture as well. It mysteriously appeared and then just as mysteriously disappeared a few weeks later. It’s fun to imagine where they came from and who made them.
