Loon

 

Standing at the dock 
Darkness, speckled with 
Starry ideas. 
Gentle waves kathunk 
The rock crib. 
I hear splashing, some critter 
Down the shoreline. 
And then there is the Bird… 
His mournful yodel cry 
Seems to match how 
I felt last week. 
Reason why I took this break. 
Thrilling Lake Temagami. 
But listen, another One 
Opposite end of the waters. 
Calling back. 
Three of us enjoying ambiance 
Under a smiling Dipper. (ursa major)

And last quarter Moon.
