      Red-necked Grebe and Wood Duck 
      as I flew into the river
 
I met my wife and children 
We swam in water
      filled with diamonds and fast fish
 
At sunset we huddled together 
      in our nest 
      under the moving lights
 
In my dreams I was a man 
      who didn’t catch any fast fish 
      that day
