before breakfast.
Salt at the edge. Mist in the middle. Dry earth, wet stone, warm rain—held inside one small shape in the Indian Ocean.

Distance becomes silence.
The road turns. The air cools. Hills arrive and disappear in cloud before the eye can keep them.
This is not one landscape. It is a thousand small climates learning to live together.05.95° N · 80.77° E

Every river remembers
the sea.
