across every lake,
across every lake,
there is a bench
and the promise
of a seat
when you
are ready

if we lift up this
if we lift up this
corner of a great lake, we
will happen upon
your sense of awe, bump into
the same water molecules

afternoon rain –
wherever i go

home clings to me
like the fabric of
our lake, cool

weight with

anchor roots,
annual scars, our
most vulnerable
therefore responsive
layers, and each new
branch, learning to tap
our rhythm across the sky
