String of Pearls – v2

Foggy morning

On the Vineyard

In Aquinnah

Wet chair, hot coffee

Sip in the heat

Shake the daze

Camera and film

At the ready

Over my shoulder; let’s go

Sandals snap as I walk

In the early morning

Before the island awakes

Misty morning

Silent witness

Full of promise

For a skilled watcher

Moving stalker

Of moment and place

Wet green

Color scheme

Lush, summer

Looking for a web

Adorned with moisture

Ready to pose

A string of pearls

There before me

Hovered before a backdrop

A perfect set up

Bowed by the wait

Of the night

A long cord

Tacky to hold the drops

As dew was conjured in the dark;

My reflection in each as I approached

To steal the scene

With close-up lens

Centered and balanced

Enlarged and framed

Hovering now

On my wall

To conjure the moment

On that path

Years ago
