In secret



Hidden in plain sight,
Like a stop sign late at night,
   headlights illuminate the possibilities
 run it
  stop it
   begin again

The smell of sweetness in the late summer air
  Dry grass longing for a drink
     Craving the heaviness of rain’s lonesome fall

Walking down the flight of stairs,
Feeling the hardwoods under foot,
Onto the porch
   To watch the shadows
      My familiars
        My friends

Air
Light
Night
The possibilities.
