Peaty water from the moors is drained by the River Dart. Here at Spitchwick, where the river widens and the water runs slow, the foam shows the eye the way the water flows. Occasional stick protrude from the river's surface, drawing lines through the froth, before the line breaks off and swirls away.

Sometimes, in the same way, I can almost see people's thoughts and awareness flowing and swirling in contemplation.
