Enough
Enough
What’s here is sufficient
Sufficient to amaze me
Sufficient to inspire me
with the wonder of all that is
Somehow, you wanted me
Wanted me to experience all this
a glacial lake forged by ice melt
majestic mountains constructed
when the earth split
rambunctious seas and tidal shifts
magpies nesting in a birch tree
the otter swimming backstroke and free
swans and loons, curlew and chough
and low-slung clouds we know as fairies’ fog
For hundreds of years,
Church Island called out praise
and now I understand why
This is enough
