HEY BOBCATS!
Let’s dip into some verse by William Stafford, past Poet Laureate of Oregon (1975-1990),
to set the stage for the month of August:
Why I Am Happy
Now has come, an easy time. I let it
roll. There is a lake somewhere
so blue and far nobody owns it.
A wind comes by and a willow listens
gracefully.
I hear all this, every summer. I laugh
and cry for every turn of the world,
its terribly cold, innocent spin.
That lake stays blue and free; it goes
on and on.
And I know where it is.
