Land of Adam and Eve
by Richard L. Provencher

Bands of evening colour
like a smile from God
across the horizon

as embers within a camp-fire
of clouds

last peek, day's journey hovering
over January's drifting snow

rumbles of darkness
are now ominous, rolling forward
in tumbles of foam.

Our pacing hurries across Economy
Lake, as silhouettes
etched on the
homeward trail--

snowshoes shuffle to shore
as clouds whirl in anticipation

and slender boughs shiver
amid tugs
of sweeping wind, a lighter Fall
brings snowflakes
as tender kisses.
