AGLOW
I am paddling toward the sunset sky,
and don't even bother asking why,
except that one day before I die,
there's something strange I'd like to try.
I want to bathe in amber hue
with lavender and violet blue,
yes, to fill myself with sunset too,
and shine iridescent all night through.


After kayaking on the 
Concord River,
