Swathed in fog
“Impression, Sunrise” (1872), by Claude Monet
The main town on Nantucket Island, when it was still called Sherburne, in 1775
”Swathed from head to toe
in seeming veils of muslin,
the figure in the Nantucket fog
poles along the shoreline on a flat barge.’’
— From “Summer Triptych,’’ by Linda Pastan
