Close my eyes and dream
about Lake Ontario –
three miles out, breezy

Woke feeling hopeful
but a client email turned

A mink runs along
water’s edge — I watch it stop,
look up, then push on.

Cold, overcast day –
I love it — drinking coffee,
looking at the lake.

Check Rigor Vitae
blog — trippy wildlife art and
fascinating text.

Loons played hide-and-seek
in the water near the dock –
or were they mating?

Bubbles line the side
of my water glass — one sip
will upset them all

Biceps burned as the
salmon fought against capture –
and it got away

Fireworks pop in the
distance — the finale makes
a joyous racket

My hair provides a
haven for sweat bees — they duke
it out among strands.
