Sunday Morning Early
My daughter and I paddle red kayaks
across the lake. Pulling hard,
we slip through the water.
Far from either shore,
my daughter is a young woman
and suddenly everything is a metaphor
for how short a time we are granted:
the red boats on the blue black water,
the russet and gold of late summer's grasses,
the empty sky. We stop and listen to the stillness.
I say, "It's Sunday, and here we are
in the church of the out of doors,"
then wish I'd kept quiet. That's the trick in life-
learning to leave well enough alone.
Our boats drift to where the chirring
of grasshoppers reaches us from the rocky hills.
A clap of thunder. I want to say something truer
than I love you. I want my daughter to know that,
through her, I live a life that was closed to me.
I paddle up, lean out, and touch her hand.
I start to speak then stop.
