THE BEAGLE CHANNEL
by Dan Linehan
Sandra told me about her silver ring.
Her mother had said
silver has healing powers.
I showed her my silver earring.
I feel like a pirate now.
She has a telescope back in Chile.
This is her last cruise.
She knows magic tricks.
We watched the comet,
sharing a pair of binoculars.
