when i am sitting | 1 |
and the sun is blocked | 2 |
by the gentle sway of a shadow | 3 |
that lay across me like a thin sliver blanket | 4 |
and i want that shadow to move | 5 |
but i do not | 6 |
| |
because i know | 7 |
that things are still but always moving | 8 |
slow and shifting | 9 |
clockwork | 10 |
that that sun will work its way around | 11 |
that branch to warm me soon | 12 |
| |
and then | 13 |
and then i think of something else | 14 |
a thought that makes things so simple it is silly | 15 |
like this | 16 |
the sun (a miracle perhaps?) | 17 |
the sun and the moon | 18 |
they are the same size in our sky! | 19 |
