Muted

Mute Swan on the Biel at Belhaven

It was one of those still
whispering days
when people feel
the need to walk
carefully and smile shyly.

Mist took the colour and
spread it out so
evenly that
only a swan
could ripple the still surface.

Music: today I discovered Iron and Wine via Calexico via Amparo Sanchez.
Here's Iron and Wine in Edinburgh. Wish I was there.
And here's a rather nice video of them doing Boy with a Coin. Is that flamenco dancers? Wow.
To paraphrase a hobbit: "It comes on CDs? I'm getting one!"
I also read today that the CD is dead, and Amazon's Cloud is the thing. Bah.
