night walk

A veil descends 

It's slick shimmer

And star glimmer

Upon my eyes

 

Night palms corraled 

Bursting grass between driveways

Red cedar fence

Small smooth stones layed this way and that

River stones but no river 

 

Little lights in windows saying 

Love

Little swings crammed against a whole

Array of chaises and stools surely promising 

Easy Sunday afternoons of laughter

 

A whole jumble of midnight fools

Clambering out of a squeaky van

Sharing time and space and 

Kindness
