brilliance, open and endless
     flecked with maturity, holding light

the yellow of late autumn, storm-nourished oak
     creeps across morning’s pale, cool blues

later, far away stars will speck the same expanse
     bright white time-bombs ticking thru deepening black

dark nests of potential grow in twists,
     slowly shocked silver by grasp

 

love notes
a ritual to start the work week
