love song ...

through the soles

of my old sneakers

listening for the whisperings

of the street

across the lawn

of blackberries

quicksand…

extending a hand

from across the seas

the emotions

or tighten the straps

the moon at my window

the precious beauty

of ordinary days

this morning begins

with pearls of dew
