What does a lake offer
that an ocean does not?
Two early Morning Swimmers
A Figure in Black
smoking & drinking coffee —
serene bird song
& a wet deck chair
for me to towel off

This New Morning
Eye raised my shade
2 the glorious blue
of The Western Waterway
beyond my Western Bedroom Window
& thought 2 write
of why Eye live here
remote butt not remote
on a narrow spit of sand
called The Hawk
on Cape Sable Island —
the most southerly tip
of Atlantic Canada
where my Gully now knocks
at the sliding glass door
for His rare piece
of bacon

Eye said 2 My Gull —
or was He? —
“Gully, Is That You?”
This Morning
a lone gull
acting familiar
came 2 His Rail
hoping for Breakfast
& didn’t fly off
when Eye spoke
through The Sliding Glass Door —
My Door Open 2 The Hawk Life
I love so much

This Lovely Morning —
The First w Open Door
& me on The Deck —
Gully, Who seemed 2 be Gully —
came 2 His Rail
for a Piece of Bacon —
flew off butt
came again —
made 1 attempt
2 take It from my dangling fingers —
on the 2nd attempt
He got The Piece
butt my middle finger
on my left hand
got caught as well
so now I am Band-aided

of M(eye) Love

M(eye) Pair
came back this morning
this time 2 consume
Gully’s Little White Bowl
of scraps of ham & sausage
leftover from Hungry Man Breakfasts
w a friend 3 days ago.
I witnessed
M(eye) New Gully
delivering pieces by beak
2 His Princess, His Mate
(unless She is His grown offspring
from last year —
butt I doubt it)
& when The Show was over
off They flew.

Last Night I saw The Shadow
of My House, tall
over the spread of scrub spruce
behind My Back Yard
& was thankful for The Cobalt Sea

This Morning The Sea is Silver

& I am 1 Storey Higher
looking out
over M(eye) Pure Expanse
