July Light

                                                                  

It's 9:30, in this northern clime.

The sky, with its lingering brightness,

Hovers above me, its cerulean hue hazed.

 

Outdoors, at this quiet restaurant

Overlooking the reflective lake,  

I see how easy it is to confuse sunset with sunrise.

 

This breeze-riffled, tree-leafy evening,

I'm as close to immortality as I'll likely be.

Forever and I are almost one,

 

Where sky and lake and light are interchangeable

And the days, years, eons indistinguishable

From this luminous Friday night.
