Sunning on the Sandbar – v2

Four ducks, before mid-morning
sitting, facing the sun;
wings hugging against their bodies
sitting still in the sunbeams.
Swarming the sandbar
in the brook, the water,
just off the Merrimack

A moment of tranquility,
just off the highway,
as we all rushed on by;
I wonder how many others
saw them, noticed their still brown forms
on the brown of the sandbar
surrounded by the dark waters
