We stop
to breathe slow
by the Guadalupe
beneath Gruene's bluff.
We see in the weave of tree
as the pink sun goes
in the water's flow
and silver bounce
see how it is
intricate
quick
momentary
till round the bend
and pink
becomes black.
Yet chill
is the water
and warm the skin
as we breathe slow
by the Guadalupe.
