Cutting the Surfaces

Near where I stand the rain 
pushes through the Summer trees.
It drops onto the kelly- 

green leaves with the sound
of the pad of slippers with-
in an agued morn'

that is expectant, wishful. 

Little seas that have 
the taint of a muddy Spring 
form; drown mulish weeds

that slip through the cracks
of an innovation...
the PATIO? Thus

padding for the " SOUL".
Yet our TURF...Earth...with its own 
mottled tints when SEEN 

from SPACE, offers the star 
glass-like bodies on which to float...
the glister of GOLD.
