Sunday Afternoon by Raymond A. Foss
The loon and I Alone on the lake Below the threatening sky.
He watches me warily. His red eye afire. Am I a predator. He doesn’t know.
He drops below the waves Bobbing back up again.
The swallows dart and dive Skimming on the wind dimpled surface.
Too early for boaters. Too late for fisherman. Quiet on the water.
