Having Caught the Light on Its Way

 

On a Sunday May morning
the wind forgot to stir,

and in that solemn stillness

a neighbor’s cockerel proclaimed
to the dew-beaded meadow

once more his blessed rite—

a daybreak mass of opening
before our eyes and lungs.

And beyond the screen

tiny aquatic unmentionables
still cried out

in dewy lines of bliss

before their diffused sun.
