Sunset
at Lincoln Pond
(Helen Phinney, Aug. 11, 1971)
A
kingfisher skims the water -
the water reflecting the
hills and sky
Pools of pink and purple.
Now
the colors fade.
The hills take on a deep blue.
The water becomes shimmering
glass - shimmering - moving -
Blue clouds, now, and
darker water - a bird calls
in the trees behind me.
Now
all is muted and quiet,
Colors, water - all.
