A Child of God and of Long Summer Afternoons

 

Do you remember lying on the grassy bank

On a summer afternoon, holding very still

Watching the minnows only inches from your eyes?

And do you remember the earthy smell

 

Of the amber-colored water?

 

How many moments in your adult life

Have been as good as that?
