Peninsula

DONNA HILBERT

Finger connected to the hand

by an isthmus of land.

I live on one,

travel to another to recover.

Yuke-a-tawn, Jack says, correcting my pronunciation.

At home, the bay on one side,

ocean on the other.

Here, it’s ocean and sea.

Peninsula. Might as well be an island

where I’ve washed up

salty, alone.

In Quintana Roo

DONNA HILBERT

Kathy gives me a card

with angels on dolphin back

swirling from sea to sky.

I think of the morning last spring

when from our window

we spotted a pod of dolphins

and you abandoned breakfast

to join them for a swim.
