Simple Blessings
sunlight played across my skin
in lacy layers
of warmth & light…
… a strange peacefulness
fell in hushed & muffled tones…
traffic midway from there to where
muted by wind whispers
through coconut fronds…
… the chatter of parrots
a tumultuous symphony…
no one stirred
or walked the scuffed paths –
- a simple blessing
caught as I was
in animations
of communal living…
a surreal unreality
infused the afternoon
as if all signs
of human interaction
had frozen in time…
…. granting me a moment
that was purely mine….
