Billings Lake, Mid August The morning heat was broken by a thunderstorm that patted puffs of steam from the flattened grass, leaving the air drowsy with relief. We slid the boat into the water, dropped oars in their locks and rowed toward the center, each pull scrolling black water into a cello's double s's. The plink of water as it dripped off the oars: twenty years of noisy dinners, his knowing wink above the children's heads a promise we'd find rest. We stopped at a small island, looped a line over a low branch and drank our wine, barely chilled. There were blueberries laden and leaning toward the black mirror, falling without timbre as we picked noticing the indigo they marked us with, as ink stains the hands of composers.
