Early mornings
before the winds rise
and the work day starts
I watch mountain reflections
in Gasteneau Channel
and let my self believe
the calm will last forever
that by launching a kayak
I can paddle down this channel
then others until reaching the Pacific
Then winds rise
work begins
I pull on an armor of calm
Walking with Aki

Lovely. I like that by reflecting on the calm of the mountains, it acts as fortitude for the day’s work ahead.
