a small office building sits at the tip of a land on the long island sound
where pleasure craft gather together
and afternoon scenes of pastoral ...
... serenity....
...abound
where a seagull nests on a skylight
behind the small building, a parking lot
as puffs of white float by
and whispers of waves can be seen on calm waters
in the summer months, time slows in the afternoons
every so often, ominous storm clouds blow through
winters are typical of towns on the north eastern coast
sometimes fair
and sometimes not
sometimes stranding one and all
and closing cafes and bicycle repair shops
