Sun dish
Just like me
On a day like today
Though I don’t know it
Until now
When I see the words out loud
And they hum like every true thing
I saw pink
Above my head
Then wandered around the garden
Following the light
I thought I was looking for somewhere to sit
But it was the sun I wanted more
For who she was today
(O why can’t she be like this every day?)
Warm
And golden
And free
She is gone now
Hidden again
For a while
Hoping I will remember
Tomorrow
When when I see her again
Perhaps I will soak her in slowly
With closed eyes
Through my skin
Turning my pink face upwards
Intentionally
