four quartz crystals in a pool of water; opening the drawer and finding a mysterious charm bracelet; the shepherd home from the hill.
setting down the pen with a deep sigh of relief; an island of good luck; tending to your baby llama.
the sweetest moment of all; diving into a mountain lake at dawn; the train pulling out of the station.

the fragrance of Mediterranean fig; wainscotting; transcendence at the bottom of the sky.
holding a mirror up to the sky; swimming to the underwater pyramid at Yonaguni-Jima, Japan; a half-open yellow rose.
two queens talking in the summer house; climbing to the top; seeing things as they really are.
cavorting with crickets late into the evening; entering the stage; mangoes warmed by the sun.

stopping in Madagascar; weaving a shawl of color and light; a year later.
as still and quiet as a painting of summer; a kitten sleeping on your chest; a magic feather
