Photograph (Free verse) by <~>
WICCâs sounds of the seventies float out the kitchen window
drift across the lawn
where my father rushes the sprinkler
rushes it, joyous and alive
like he too is five
joyous with the heat, the summertime,
when time stops and we all ignore the weather report,
the news, whoâs blowing up who
to steep in our youth
to trust that when the grass is wet between your toes
the moment can be frozen;
it is yours.
