Mellow Noontime



A band of light lifts across the field,

The tuft of grass by the road is golden.



Your wind chimes play lazily

Around the big, white house.



The carpet mellow from hours of daylight,

The big pine trees in the backyard



All in a row. The missing child

Who walks through this house



With small, bare feet, and fingers

Barely touching the walls, whispers,



“Nobody’s home.”



Child of full awareness, hearing

The ducks nestled under the porch,



Child of animal presence, feeling

Wonder and desire wound into one.



Across the field, the band of light

Returns, the tall grass sways,



Dreams of past life alternate

With the quavering light behind the clouds.
