Cooking beetroot ...

Today we bought beetroot to cook -

Like Marco's cook, in the wooden house -

I gazed at the swollen roots, the thick stems -

I remembered the courtyard near the well -

The Frenchwoman in the garden -

The high palm trees shading the white shore -

Marco's smile -

The boy on the motorbike -

The dark furniture in the high ceilinged rooms -

The bright boats on the warm ocean -
