to a moonlit September beach<\/p>\n

crab traps, fishing poles and the little compartments of a tackle box<\/p>\n

to wildflower-strewn hillsides in W. Virginia<\/p>\n

toasting marshmallows on a stick and waiting for the whippoorwills to call<\/p>\n

to the smooth path of a wake behind the boat<\/p>\n

night walks with Luka, the warm lights of other people’s lives as we pass outside<\/p>\n

to the first breath of salty air coming home over the bridge<\/p>\n

the enchanted fairy-tale scent of beach plum in the dunes<\/p>\n

to the places and people that don’t change<\/p>\n

the rumbling happy tone of your voice<\/p>\n

to lingering can’t-say-goodbye sunsets<\/p>\n

the echoes of footsteps, no words between us<\/p>\n

to winnowing snipe, pasture horses and more ticks than I’ve had on me in my life in N. Dakota<\/p>\n

the stars and darkness gathered all around us, mixed with the sound of the ocean<\/p>\n
