#NewThisDay Writing From My Photo Stream
Long Lake, Maine
The loons call into the night. The most spectacular sunset over the lake. The loons calling now with the crickets. A light soft breeze in through a window open to the lake. The nearness and expanse of the lake. Our friends for dinner in the rain and the party moved indoors. The rainbow that Franci and Will called us to the dock to see after dinner. The sunset, the sunset. Our first sunset here, as we’ve been with our friends for dinners both nights since we’ve been here. Favorite part of day: me and Frank, and Wave in a life preserver on the paddle boards into the lake and swimming. Swimming with Wave. A nap for me instead of playing pickle, A nap for me in the quiet yard by the lake. A deep rest. Being with my daughters. A tubing ride behind Mike’s boat. Watching other ski. Wave on a tube ride with his mom. This house for relaxing. This house and friends. No poems today. Not even the slightest attempt. A happy and restful day.
