Útilykt

The air is alive with motion—sea spray carried inland, snow drifting through pale light, grass pressed flat by the wind.

A tang of ozone rises above cold stone and thawing moss, while distant smoke curls from a fisherman’s cottage. Breath fogs, mittens damp, thyme crushed underfoot. Each inhale folds sky, sea, and land into one vast rhythm: the brisk hush before snowfall, the soft green persistence of life beneath it. What remains is clean and elemental—like memory itself, suspended between seasons.

Headwind in every direction
Drifting snow creeping undercoat collars
Snow beads on wooly mittens
Berry colored tongue and head resting on a pillow of moss
Lawnmower in a distant garden
An undressed Christmas tree blowing down the sidewalk in the sea breeze
Frosted windows, weather forecast, and the car heater on full blast.
