how to live in a house

arriving at Soaring Gardens

a thanks to Ora Lerman

 

 

little windows of the sun for first

in leafbright

 

then a squirrel runup

 

here’s the trick – it’s day

 

though not so on the other side where

 

even when gone

a kitchen meadow

sighted, lit

 

a road runs by

more often not

 

which people

kind safe

for their why

and other us

 

how come?

 

in one I wish

and sit for fall

I mean for the turning

for beyond of breeze

concession not yet come

 

it’s endless the bright guess begins

and in this spirit

 

close sprawl of ideas

 

what are the times we have?

 

all called to conversation

 

the gone with us here

enable

 

out of a country of conquest, gun

misery also brought

 

think of it compulsion

violence ever about to begin

 

and need to paint it

from the inside out

green as tree beside

 

knowing nothing yet

must make minds blanks

 

there’s a yonder where the mowing begins

 

each of us under the aegis

brings just a little shine

 

love falls for us again

again

 

and so I make these thanks
