AT THE REGATTA

After my string recital
in Harvard Square
my uncle and aunt
take me out
to a French restaurant
after having raspberries
and a croissant for desert
I'm seriously thinking
of Raoul Dufy's
ceramics and tapestries
since he drew regattas
in his perspective in 1962
at Paris which we viewed
now we decide to go
to the crew race on the Charles
where local students row.
