Transitory Moments

Unsupervised, 

this outsider opens

and all becomes lost

within its awakening.

Its breadth,

light and agreeable

as it rises upward –

its magnetism, far-reaching.

Exuberant, its laugh,

playfully existing

somewhere between

blades of grass unfurled. 

Flirtatious, its song

as it genially sings

of change and

new beginnings.

A life of thought

inscribed within the circle

of its own turning –

  however transitory.
