a time to imagine
when I had no song
I listened to the birds
their effortless imaginings
leaving me in deep thought
when I had no thought
I closed my eyes
imagined where I would be
without a single breath
when I had no breath
I found myself immersed
beneath an endless sea
images of life abounding
july two thousand twenty-four
