woman paddling
in shallow water
circles, kicks, circles
sounds waver
in gelatinous air -
hover, quiver,
resonate wrapped
in brass
a jumble of land,
Bute, Argyll, Cumbrae,
rolling over and under
itself
glint of light at
crest of wavelet
spear piercing
surface of water
at pier's end
lamposts on
the prom
thin, stern,
comical
children knee deep
in sea water -
innocent, exotic
tin bark/tin barque
bay a tin bowl
with liquid lid
voices softened
