one day on the pavement

A man said to himself
As he watched the maiden
Play with children
"Here is joy in a skirt"

A man sat in the car daydreaming
Of the maiden
Of a day with her smile

The man, the skirt, his dreams
And her smile, never questioned
His sight in her eyes

Water

And how is it
No two people see
The same sea
Waves in a tumbler
ends within ends and cascading starts

Gentle, you might miss it
This thing that transpires between us
So loves its whispers.
When I became slow
I was one with the deep

What am I to do
Sit at the shore
Feel you in the spray
You never left me
Water
