IMPROVISATION#225
OFF OAK BLUFFS

The breeze
   off Oak bluffs
as fishermen
when   visiting from Lisbon
      listen
  to the fragmented
churning  sea
  with a voice in shadows
  by the trees
 hears us in echoes
 by flakes of the snow
       in local field
  of local  colors
as fishers  by river banks
shielded   from the sun
  for  out of reach
 salmon on the blue surface
    with its complicity
  of nature.
