Sparkling dots of iridescence
Poke through quivering leaves,
Daytime stars forming
Ever changing constellations
The sultry breeze would tell stories
Of ten thousand summers past
If I could decode the secrets
Nature whispers in my ear
Black cat and blue Jay
Play tag around the elm tree
Neither wins, neither loses,
Life dances with itself
“Mr. Squirrel, I’m lonely,
Will you share a glass of Rose?”
I swear he shakes his head ‘no’
As he scampers off around the corner
So I sit alone, but not so much
Loneliness is all in the mind
I share the stage with a million actors –
Both human and not
If I could but open my eyes,
My ears,
My heart
And listen.
