The fading seams of light
reflect in amber display
across the flattened bay,
and the silken surface
holds the formed light
like a water colourist
plying her art as the
creator of the world anew.
And with this scene I stand
entranced with the vivid
drug of the earth’s
magic play at the going
down of the sun on a
warm and still summer day.
