Bask in fading light - the way shadows dance at night in quiet moonlight

Listening again - the piano plays the pain; cold November rain

Sleep beneath the ground in a blanket of darkness, you nightshade tuber

Nimble little legs scurrying along the sand, chasing ocean waves

Night sky's cubes of ice - stars falling in jars of dreams, intermittently

for Algot

Ice cubes, now melting, chill the provisions we bring into these deep woods

Paw a patch, then play, cat, that small Valerian sends forth feline love

Deep within the hedge, quail quiver under cover; then fly, in flutter

Covered with clover, the field's as green as a sea, buzzing sharp with bees

A heart of purple blooms in the back of the yard; Morning Glory smiles
