I am here
sitting
under my favorite
olive tree
in the park
the one with
craggy grooved
armor for bark
and eulogic boughs
for arms
and the leap
between the thought
I could be in ancient Greece
to
I am in ancient Greece
is not far at all
and I thank god for imagination
as I soon forget myself
and watch a hawk
ghostgliding
across a wooly pride
of albino lion
clouds
while in the near distance
I hear
prairie dogs
popping off
like five alarm
squeak toys
and I am here
nothing more
summer in my throat
and in my eyes
and ears
I am here
a privileged
witness
enjoying an embarrassment
of free riches
beyond mortal claim
or measure.
This is absolutely gorgeous. Displayed all lovely sight perspectives, a thing that I adore about you.
