A Fair Haven In The Sea Of Aging


The home is clean, floor swept, dock scrubbed, laundry done and put away.  Summer draws to a close today for this old man.  It’s all neatly wrapped and packed away.  My lover sleeps as I sit and watch the river will end with the posting of this blog. I walked away yesterday, testing the waters I suppose, and turned and looked back at her and she was a sight; nestled in the hill surrounded by the forest laying up our mountain.  She’s not a home as much as a dream, a safe harbor for old bodies and old boats that need one, a fine port in the sea of aging; our  Fair Haven.
