Hometown Views

Here we don’t find the same enchantment
concocted by smeary Venetian canals
daubed with painterly reflections.

I can be weary of prairie, especially
in winter, with early spring just
another of winter’s subtly woven hues.

Yet under the bleary lamplight—sunlight—
Northfield can sometimes yield
a veld of vivid pastels, a welter of watercolor.
