“A Particle of Life”

1. “A Particle of Life” I said farewellhoping that it would ease into a goodbye.I perched on the solid rafter of today hoping that it would turn into the raft of tomorrowmobile over the quicksilver of the senses.No sidereal avenues for me, not yet.All I now hope for is a cyclamen's vagrant nod to the lightthe tentative scratch of a kitten on the cushion of time.A particle of lifecomely in its perishable beautya small strategy of sound and colorl'espace d'un matin.
