How He Spent His Summer Poem by Ima Ryma

Upon a bank of Lake Tahoe
He pitches a teepee like tent.
Alone is the young Navajo
Seeking a summertime well spent.
He knows that there be all around
Lots of folks in this tourist spot,
But the location he has found
Is very unbothered a lot.
He plans to fish and swim and walk,
And read and write through day and night.
He hopes he will share little talk.
The solitude's for him delight.

A recent Harvard Law School grad,
He seeks life as ancestors had.
