MOMENTS

I make rainbows in the lawn
From the water
Heat from sun on back,
Cold water sifting back,
Watery lines in grass drawn
While making the rainbows
Glisten

Kamikaze bugs crash land
In the water
Splayed wings buzzing, protests to air
Feet swimming upside down mid-air
I gently nudge them to stand,
Then resume my watering,
And listen

Time pauses fluidly by me,
With the water
Van der Waals forces cling,
While torque forces all apart
Moments, suspended in drops, fall free,
Gathering impetus, thus locked,
Then, hasten

I am healed from the outside in
By the water
Noise of relentless spray
Temporalized in a bouquet-like spray,
Soothing the unrelenting din
Of facets locked deep within,
Each one, timidly brazen
Near the water…..
