The Bell Buoy The desk stood with the strict simplicity of specific purpose. Singularly located it afforded the writer a choice of views. Foremost, this Christmas Eve, the hearth asserted its domestic precedence. His eyes eased, banking with the embers. Family was due to arrive momentarily and so he enjoyed one, last opportunity to watch the bay. Faintly, the bell buoy carried. He closed his eyes and imagined the swell curving the length of a lovely clipper deeply filled with spice and mail. RMW |
