The glint of setting sunlight
On the Connecticut River
Highlights the deep, yet softening, crease
Of time on this landscape.
The platinum light
Beguiles my attention
As I slip
Through the clouds
To paradise
And the sea,
The same light
Melding with the ever effacing shore:
All fire and heart,
So unlike
The cool and distant colors of home.
Water, life, consciousness,
Every hope and dream:
Love aching for life:
To be.
