. Orange breasted robins And cardinals With bright red wings Cloud white swans That moved in pairs Along the shore The lapping of waves On colored pebbles Polished smooth with time Ships passing the lighthouse Out of Sault Sainte Marie It was July with fireflies Over long green summer lawns Crickets chirping their tunes The whole night through Not that then Anyone Was actually Listening For being young And very much in love We had better things to do . |

John, This is an excellent Great Lakes poem. It's a beautiful area. Of course, you didn't notice that either. Bobby |
