Blue Moon
Attitash Blue II
A desire to be the color
of the lake, tonight,
after the sun has set:
a deep blue leaning
so very slightly to purple,
blue of blueberries,
the blueberry blue
of Lake Attitash,
the lake of blueberries.
City days leave me scattered,
as autumn leaves depart
in every direction,
a need to gather myself,
a desire to be one color,
the color blue,
the color of blueberries,
the color of Lake Attitash
after the sun has set
into the lake of blueberries,
the blueberry blue
of Lake Attitash.
