I went around in a round house

I went around in a round house

I went around in a round house
anti-clockwise
driven by windows      by sea light
        to a cool table.
Looking towards the sound, I ate there.
Sailboats in curtains,
         masts sparking
the banner flushing.
    I leaned on my hand,
a small motor boat about to start
sweeping a circle.
This is the same house around which I went in winter.
I saw your face outside,
    I saw you right there against dandelions
against sea,
this is the house,
    I thought of the year,
such an open one, in the windows of the sea.
