Dear Luc,

I took a drive to the swamp house today.

I don’t know why. Maybe the bayou was calling to me in its mystical and magical way. Maybe I was missing you. Or maybe I simply needed to get away.

Peering in through the back window, I saw all your stuff is still there. I guess your mom is going to keep the place. I’m not surprised considering your father’s mausoleum is there.

Anyway, I hope you don’t mind, but I took your pirogue out. It’s spring, and the dragonflies are flittering through the cattails, connected to each other in that age-old dance of procreation.

Wow. That sounded poetic, huh?

I just impressed myself.

Or maybe you rubbed off on me.

That’s a nice thought, isn’t it? That I’m keeping a little of you with me and maybe you’re keeping a little of me with you?

In any case, I tied up to a tree with red lichen clinging to its side. Then I lay in the bottom of the boat and closed my eyes so I could listen to the chorus of bugs and bullfrogs.

I must’ve dozed off. The next time I opened my eyes, the sun was setting and the air around me had turned cool.

On the drive home, I realized I felt closer to you today than I have since you left. Maybe I’ll go back again soon.

Forever and always, Maggie May
