Two monogamous pairs
bathe at the lake’s edge
watchful of the two of us,
necks upside down,
twisted and smoothing their backs.

Their whiteness is stark
against the shallow water,
the shifting clouds,
the late day light,
the turning trees
on the far side of the lake.
They are luminous and intent.

The one in front
stretches his shapely wings,
strong enough to drown a threat,
unlikely as the birth of a dream.
