The Book of Days

 

The dawn’s early light can be pleasure enough for the whole day.

There are words enough to tell the story of “the temptation of day to come.”

It is my delight to write some of them for your delectation.

 

Caprice

 

The clouds pretend to lithic form

   but they are sprites

      that will not stay,

all shifting shapes

   of wisp and white

      and blur and bulge and gray…
