rescue

today on the beach my friend who's in love tried to rescue a penguin.

the penguin was struggling against the crashing waves when my friend spotted it. she went up to him and eventually took it out to the shore. the penguin was breathing and moving but looked exhausted. small thing, so fragile. we made a shelter for it, called the sea-life rescue. when they came they told us the penguin was dying.

we did all we could. which is, as ever, all that anybody can ever do.
