As It Fills

Sun shines today

Birds whistle within my ears

Though my eyes can’t see them-

A large pool

Gathered in this

Broken and cracked cement-

One that began

Dry and crumbled

Outer knife edges-

And then

There it was

The downpour threw up-

The dry was moist

The sharpness camouflaged

The pool became-

Casting warm blankets

Of heat and light

Calling up mirrors-

Sharing the skies

On the topcoat

Without glancing up-

Awe of trees

Comfort of clouds

Covers of sunshine-

Falling in to dreamland

Melting enemies away

Gracefully-
