Impulsive Earth (Day 877)


impulsive earth

living and dying and living 

   again   allowing 

for mysteries

for hillsides of sunflowers tracking 

   the slow progress of hours 

for swathes of ancient evergreens 

   obsured by pearl-tinged showers

for the echo of spiraling galaxies

   in even the smallest nautilus shell

our handful of minor comforts 

a destination worth defending 

this dream 

   from which we never want to wake
