My Bubble

My bubble extends
as far as I can see
to the horizon around me. A misty, blue caterpillar island
streaked yellow around the edge
with a fluffy white cap,
dominates my distance interface
between sky and sea. Specks of boat
appear,
streak,
disappear
with an approving hum. Crickets and bees
provide a background ambiance. A red kite
hovers,
watches,
waits.

I nestle in the grassy fern carpet.

The hot sun beats down.
