Mediterranean Evening
"The affectionate air, all whisper and caresses ...
--San Juan de la Cruz, from "Spiritual Canticle"
The air in Leon tonight is the proper degree
For muscles that are strained, for shoulders that carry

We have no word in English for this breath of air,
This bien tiempo. Take the soft breeze of evening
Instead of a drink, set your work aside.
Greet one another, listen to music, think.
