MY SON & I

My Son & I

walked on The Hawk Beach

& talked of how humidity

can extend waves of sound

& how The Guzzle

could possibly have moved

from Its former sandy river bed

to parallel The Dunes

& how breeds of dogs

get bred for certain aspects

like liking water

or how foxes were bred

to be domesticated

& how Peak might get a dog

when He goes travelling

& have His Father or Me

look after It when He goes really far away —

My Son & I

THE HAWK LIVING ROOM 2:22pm

The Dishwasher is running again

& My Son Peter is with Me

from Montreal via Alberta

He’s a Tree-planting Crew Boss

finished with work for The Summer

now readying for school

in The Fall

The Fog Should Be Gone By Then

I am Singing The Praises

of being Peak’s Mother

& have just opened The Dishwasher Door

as It went on The Dry Cycle
