pasta and broccoli
the last of the figs
a nice cabernet
gifts to my housekeeper
neighbor kids
on this holiday
a breeze cooling
the back balcony
Diana Krall singing
in my living room
later a movie
something French
and read a bit more
of Kazantzakis
and Hemingway’s Boat
this could be
paradise
or close enough
at this stage
in finally
a quiet life
