(Are they really running across the surface ) They leave spidery wakes.brbrDragonflies hover, dart. Butterflies flutter, alight, open, close. Yellow Irises cluster.brbrA woman suns on an inner-tube. A woman swims laps. A man, standing in the lake, plays fetch-a-stick with two paddling dogs.brbrA kayaker. Another kayaker with a fishing rod.brbrOn the far shore, any time of day, people are fishing. Slanting light makes colors fluorescent: blue (beach chair), orange (vest), red (SUV), all repeated upside-down in the lake surface.brbrBald eagles glide high above. Another raptor (which ) soars.brbrSwallows (which ) are skimming.brbrRobins and song sparrows are singing everywhere. More birdsong. (Whose )brbrTimeless northwest forest trees that taper, are mirrored on the lake’s surface as wavering blocks of modern art.brbrEight Canada geese form a flotilla and head to the far shore, reconnoiter on land, then slowly make their way to the small decaying raft beside us on the pier. They nibble at the covering of green growth and then depart. The geese have left the raft unstable. Untethered, it floats slowly into the middle of the lake. And then, where brbrAn alligator ( ) with brilliant gold eyes drifts to the middle of the lake, then hides on the far side. He is retrieved by kayak, - that thrilling, life-size, plastic alligator head that was meant to keep the geese away.brbrFrom the Dwelling:brbrLook down on the top-feathers of swallows (which ), turned golden in the sun.brbrCatch sight of two young bucks with furred stubs of antlers strolling down the driveway.brbrLater, read by lamplight in chairs before the fireplace.
