At the Spillway in August

A month ago, only slow trickles of water
flowed over these rocks. Now, cascades!
All sparkly and bright, sending invisible
stars to land on your eyelids and face
once you get close enough. Summer
peaks, luxuriant, fragrant, lush,
the kind you dream about,
the way you dream about heaven.
