Soothing (Long version)

1. The Impression

Water flowing from a channel

among rocks

of lava

in the surf

on the bay

at Kona.

2. The Wide-view

A yellow cloud of Tangs

surges and falls

with the swells.

I write a word or two

and pause to take a sip.

From the water glass

to the page

a droplet drips.

I see the words grow cloudy

but that’s okay

anyway

I write them down again

on the same page.

A spray of salt

sprinkles

the dove

and the sparrow

and I.

3. The Setting

Voices

Music

somewhere nearby.

Cecilia

is efficient

and kind

she refills my glass

we take our time;

the dove,

the sparrow,

and I.
