think a good thought…

Look up

Sure enough, another dawn

released another day,

a chance to see this old world

another way,

to take another step to futures,

a blink in time, oh sure,

but another whole day

to be alive,

to think a good thought,

to pause just once

to really spy the sallow clouds

and glance across the doughy sky,

and chance to see

that patch of personality

in the western span,

to think that, yes,

the clouds have their own time,

in separate beats,

and I can savor mine.
