Oyster graveyard

Beneath Spanish Moss
On beaches of soft white sand
Oysters go to die

* Haiku Friday is hosted by Lou at LouCeeL.

At Eden Gardens State Park, the lawn of the estate slopes toward Washington Point. Along the shore of the bayou, low-hanging tree limbs draped in Spanish moss, shroud king-sized beds of oysters.
