Eternal

Shadows sweep along 
the street, branching off 
in all directions,
radiating outward.

Heat ripples steamy air
as a woman pushes 
a silent baby in a carriage
up the way.

A plane in the distance 
stretches itself across
the accommodating azure sky,
sound of the engine a drone.

A breeze whispers 
capriciously,
teasing trees, 
teasing skin.

This moment, 
as is every,
is eternal.
