Morning at the coffeeshop

Cheating traffic, the back-roads

White clouds, the pale sky

Parking near water, a book

Midday at the bay, the breeze

Water on your feet and scallop shells

My sister’s laughter—baby mischief, feeling glad

Scanning the view, white sails

White rocks, sand, beach grass

Sunsets, borrowed sunglasses

Old friends

Newer music

Bonfires and beer and stars—the dim white milky way

Warm nights

Simplicity

Gemütlich sein.
