Pines & Stars
for Angela & Allan & Maine
Days and nights
of pines and stars.
Of blue bays,
white schooners,
top-down
vintage motorcars.
Mornings
of outdoor showers,
lupins; pure
Downeast air.
Evenings
of first fireflies,
loons; clear
falling light.
And everywhere ~
oceans of native pines,
everywhere oceans of
votive stars.
