Shine

Every night when the light gets long seagulls fly over in streams. I don’t know where they come from or where they are going. Last night was clear and still and the gulls were lit from below; golden.

It was Vivian who spotted them, stopping in her tracks and tipping up her little chin. “Birds!” she crooned. “They shine.”
