the tender laughing surface of things
shimmers like a girl with a pink jacket
and a boy in cobalt corduroy
warmed near a blue fire,
their delight simmers and surprises
creates a ring of open history
around this plush moment
where an improvised storytelling
compels a knowing of deeper
silence under chalk cliffs
at the edge
of the open channel
as small birds
swoop and lift in the swift
fresh breeze.
