Foggy morning
On the Vineyard
In Aquinnah
Wet chair, hot coffee
Sip in the heat
Shake the daze
Camera and film
Sandals snap as I walk
In the early morning
Before the island awakes
Misty morning
Full of promise
For a skilled watcher
Of moment and place
Wet green
Lush
Looking for a web
Ready to pose
A string of pearls
Hovered before a backdrop
Bowed by the wait
Of the night
A long cord
Tacky to hold the drops
As drops
My reflection in each as I approached
To steal the scene
With closeup lens
Centered and balanced
Enlarged and framed
Hovering now
On my wall
To conjure the moment
On the path
Years ago
(Raymond A. Foss)
