Ere evening’s yawn spins into
oblivious moments, the
sun enshrined in its delay
while wind and weather conspire
to affect life’s imitations --

now clouds wither into nightfall
trees cloaked in silhouettes
loon’s heralded as a soliloquy
of sound, mosquitoes bring a chant.

My wife and I thread fingers
one upon another in loving biss
for thankful moments such as this
proper times no longer amiss.
