blue icing

...from december

blue icing... got my boat and a friend's boat out of the water today. skim ice has been forming every still night, it was time to get out. the ride to the ramp is only about a mile or so, so it didn't seem too cold. with a blue sky and utterly windless conditions, the water did look like blue icing. it wasn't iced, just very, very still. it'll skim over tonight. the bay was really nice, all clear and crisp and clean. three clammers were digging for their gold in a peaceful solitude, devoid of summer's population enthalpy, but probably singing their own icy blues.

chilled. wish I had that wood burning stove. a cup of hot thai soup and a hot laptop on me. eyes heavy. relaxed. three more months of landlock. patience. cold irons bound.

candle and daydream time. short day.

there is poetry in so much of what you write... you see so much in what other people blindly neglect and take for granted... you capture it, ponder it and put words to it,like lyrics to a song.....its like magic.. it draws me in...like listening to you talk about your passion....its poetry... words with meaning ..thoughtful...insightful..full of feeling and emotion...simplistic yet so complex... you keep drawing me in..i want to drink from the deepest part of your soul... i want to capture what you see and learn from your retrospection..listen to you..learn your language.. by the way...does that daydream include me? :)
