an important question

september
in one of the most beautiful places
i've ever been to, ever seen
with my own eyes,
ever touched and breathed
with my own fingertips
my own lungs
you asked me an important question

now going back there
standing on the receded dunes
of a lake once much more picturesque
i know the landscape has changed
and will always change
everything changes without meaning
except for my hand in yours
looking out over water
and wilderness
and the dramatic peaks

that saw me tell you yes
