The silky sand
slanting on grassy dunes
along the Lake Michigan shore
invite my bare feet
to run up the ridge,
around the poplar trees,
and leap in long bounds
back down the slope,
then, high-stepping the waves,
to plunge into the clear, cool water
of magnificent Lake Michigan,
invigorated,
refreshed,
restored.
