earth note 707


first night at glacier national park
it rained only like a cold summer rain
     can
the tent stood without complaining
cold cascading off the mountain
a deer sharing the campsite
left a misty breath
to fade under the overcast

a couple days later all was clear
the road down to the lake warming up
with travelers & kayaks
we found the tallest of the pines
to lean with
fair winds to wake with

rock and ice up over our boots
