"Sunday Afternoon"


Auke Bay was still,

save for the salty tide

slowly rising closer

to the rock where

a lone form was perched,

staring out towards the horizon

and tugging her jacket closer

as a presumptuous breeze

ran its fingers through her hair,

her own thoughts drifting

and tangling together

and, like this wind,

taking no direction

but wreaking disorder

and preventing her heart

from rest she so eagerly desired,

and yet –

Auke Bay was still.
