Garden Fountain

In the pure sky above the ridge line of the house
A perfect morning moon cradled in blue. 
Escaping the suffering we turn toward light
Bathing this planet spinning through space. 
Our Earthship.
In the yard Flicker, Crow, Robin, Wren, Sparrow.
Insects, and a droplet of dew on each blade of grass. 
Explain that.
Perfect round globe at the top of each Dandelion stalk. 
Delicate and profoundly resilient. 
The stuff of the Earth. 
As we are.
