If I were happy

10/17/2012

0 Comments

 
If I were happy just now
right here, right now
I would look at the yellow leaves
lit with sun and wind
and it would be enough

the stone block arrowing
to the north
dreaming of sandstone love
would be enough

the dowsing tree
a Y of hidden water
bare save for two leaves
would be enough

the metal gate lit by memories
of the afternoon sun
the empty black chair
the blue water barrel
the glow of the eastern sun
the silhouette of the shed's roof
the green southern hills  
the rectangle of blue window
the woman in sweats and red pen
at the kitchen table
- she too would be enough
