Summer's Tale

Isn't the story better embellished?

Aren't we happier timber-landed and beached,

burnished with patina? Curv mauved?

Take on the outside the bee sting and exigency room,

the ungracious guest, the rainy weekends.

Aren't we better not on trailing lilac streamers?

Pretend we take the Zakim Bridge at sunset

halyards clank in Hingharn harbor as we toast.

Who could pitch upon one god among all the bright



feathers of August or mention one by one a summer story

without its aged fishhooks and salt-weathered prospects?

I'll add the foreign stamps, the halogens;

you bring the clambake and watercolors.

Let's give the contractor a bit part in the kayak.
