Calm Though the Winds

            Soave sia il vento,
            Tranquilla sia l’onda,
            Ed ogni elemento
            Benigno risponda
            Ai nostri desir.
                    —from Così fan tutte

Calm though the winds,
Soft though the leaves
Might mirror the heavens
Above,

In the end it’s the ocean’s
Reef and spin
That leads us nearer
To love.
