Winter Meditation, Halibut Point


Looking east at sunset
A spectacular sky unclutters my mind
Something says come back in the morning


The wind picks up overnight
The sun keeps faith
Froth matches stone


Light ribbons trace the clouds
Gulls peek over the top
A spectrum floats on ink


Water wakes up,
gets busy decorating,
guessing colors
 

Water lighter than air
blushes pink and purple,
higher than flight
 

Colors contract in
subsiding light
around black fringes
 
 
Edges tilt,
congratulating
the gift of a day
 

Receptive dark
reabsorbs the singularity
of myriad forms


Last glimpse
Endless wave
Ceaseless sky
