"Day’s Start on St. Ignace Sand"

 

If you ask me how my day went,

I’ll show you the sand on my tent stakes.

I filmed the sunrise over Lake Huron.

I worked a little;

I tried to dump the dirt, pebbles, crumbs out of my tent,

But there’s still some Maine, Virginia, and Colorado left in there.

I worked a little;

I wiped the morning moisture off the bottom—

Smells like pine.

If you ask me how my day went,

I’ll tell you just as good as yesterday,

But ask me later.

The sun still sits very low in the East.

The day can’t be went until it’s gone.

Ask me later,

And you'll see my tent stakes.
