Blue Sky Wanders

The Blue Sky Wanders


I was afflicted today

with a distracting, uplifting,

case of the 'blue sky wanders.'

 

When gravity says I won't hold you bound;

When the road is open

and the map is vague.

 

The type of day that

brings to its company

a certain sort of memory:

 

The color of the ocean

seen from a bus

along the coast of Chile;

 

A love letter once received;

 

The fullness that bloomed

in an empty sanctuary,

while listening to the grandeur of quiet.
