Slight Rain Here
Among gravel
weeds
you can make
sculptures
or pick wild
flowers
for the kitchen
table
Rosemary thyme
mint
Scent familiar
after rain
Sunrise 6.11 a.m.
for S.O.
To be rid
of work dreams
to walk lanes
first thing
with the glow
of light
keeping us
from the void
A spider
crosses
the breakfast
table
on which
stands
a bowl
of shelled peas
Clouds
at pace
grey over
white
gentle
rustle of
a brown
paper bag
Breeze
drops
fresh stillness
