I smile broadly
At one, then another
And another…
This fascination with faces
Smiling back
the sound of music
in the water fountain
water falling…

How ironic
Coming to love
This life and world
And at the same time
Letting it all go…
what a day
for a day dream…

In a reverie
At the long traffic light
It occurs to me
Why would I want
To do more, faster
red lights
just in time
to gaze up

after the river boat… the river
daydream
play of sun
off the water
on the underside
of the old stone bridge

between chores
I study my hands
as if they might hold
something
I should know
skunk cabbage
opening in the woods

so intent with feeling
that her warm greeting
to someone just beyond me
gave me a moment so sure
she was greeting me
the child
hiding under the leaf
giggling

my youth spent
gathering strength and solace
of friends near and far–
these short years later
losing them one by one
river of gold
flowing with and toward
the sun

the wind in the trees
reminds me
that what once was
so important
just passes by
layer
by layer
the water falls
