  • Sometimes
  • you get lucky
  • looking out
  • over the lake
  • when the sun
  • and everything
  • – yes –
  • Everything!
  • hits you
  • like an undeserved
  • gift.
  • Islands punctuating
  • the uniform water.
  • Sunbeams coloring
  • distant sails.
  • Flags surrendering
  • their bodies
  • to breath.
  • The cold
  • a reminder
  • that everything
  • – yes –
  • Everything!
  • is momentary.
  • Sometimes
  • you get lucky
  • looking out
  • over the lake
  • and you remember
  • that this
  • is enough.
