Blueberry Afternoon
This bracing Wednesday a.m., Chequamegon Bay and its surrounds Form a vibrant still-life In yellow, green, gray-white, and silver — Yarrow plants interlacing ubiquitous sumac And leafy birch and maple trees, Argenteous sky and lake mirroring each other.
Soon, the day will be overlaid with dark blue — Blueberries I'll pick, at Blue Vista Farm, In the orchard hills high above Bayfield, And take back with me, to Lake Nebagamon, Northlands and Patriots in pint boxes And on my fingertips, lips, and tongue... That taste of blue lingering all afternoon.
