this morning the bay has this blue iridescent glow to itreminescent to some wrapping paper I’ve been saving for the day when I have purpose to create a mermaid costume.The water looks as if it has taken the bits of blue sky that are showingbetween the layer of spotty clouds that stretch across the itand are reflecting it all back up, to say, “yes, we are mirror images”it is breath-takingeach lap of the bay’s waters against our break-wall brings a smile to my lips to matchthe smile already in my heart.I hear the whir of a distant cargo boat coming across, but it has yet to create any waves,the bay is still, aside from a gentle, natural wave, I feel alone with you, blue bay.The clouds begin to drift towards the ocean and I wonder if when they reveal the clear blue sky, will the water’s color change? Let’s sit in the stillness and see.I see the cargo boat now, that moments ago was just a distant sound – she moves ever-so-slowly, under the weight of trees, lumber and furniture coming over to enhance the lives of those who call this home.The island is beginning to bustle with life – seagulls in single succession, fly over our backyard, squawking, making my daughter’s head tilt, ever-so-slightly to the right in curiosity.A speed boat races west across the bay and an small airplane fly overhead,a half-dozen birds take rest on the break-wall – I don’t feel so alone anymore.The clouds continue to drift away, clearing the sky and the water is still that beautiful iridescent blue – I wish I could take a mason jar and grab some water to have on my dresser and wake up to it every morning. Yet, she can remain free and lapping, as I will wake up to her every morning, afternoon & rest to her lapping each evening – thank you dear heavens for the blessings that are my life right now! She’s still that beautiful blueA yellow finch swoops down towards our pool, then up to a tree. A cardinal rests on a pine tree, retrieving some nourishment and seagulls chatter with one another as they dance in the sky above the bay. 3 mallards swim by and more and more boats make their way around the great south bay, changing the water’s texture, but still not it’s color.Several minutes have passed, a ferry heads towards us and the water’s color hasn’t changed a bit, aside from the weird current shape that’s headed to the edge of our surface, and I think that’s just the bay, coming to life – the sun just struck my hands as I type, from over my shoulder as if to say – good morning world!!!!!miss lady couture
