On the canal

On the Canal

The pondskaters’ erratic
flick-flack glide disrupts
like light shower dimples

while the flash of a fish
spreads ripples through
inverted sunset clouds.

Over fragile corrugations
the skaters slip-slide
sideways to the dark bank

as night breathes in
through the fading light
like brush strokes

No time to lose. No, time to lose. Make time to stand and stare.... Did you see that?
