The forgivable side of wasting time
Spaces where pages wait.
Fluttering in warm wind,
microscopic ash falls
unseen covers pretty much everything.
Looks like pixie dust
trailing from wings of dragonflies
as they dart over roses.
Late morning warm wind,
bright sunlight through
cloudless sky.
People pull over, side of road,
watch deer flicking ears, as
they nibble last of green weeds.
