bedroom: windowed trees,

rising sun, green cathedrals

my sons, living prayers.

*

morning, a new space:

yesterday's materials

sculpted into new.

*

sunlight on your face

finds new paths from brow to mouth--

sleeping changes you.

*

daily news of the world:

we are murdering our home

just by sitting here.

*

i can't imagine

what will take the place of blue,

the oceans, the sky?

*

all tucked in at last;

fourteen hours together

still, i am in awe.
