11:40. Sunday.
The October light is grey,
it spills through the attic window.
Downstairs I can hear the clatter
of the coffee pot being started.
I await the aroma to drift upstairs.
The day seems still,
apart from the sound of a plane
flying through the sky.
I wonder where it is going,
where it is taking people to.
All sounds seem sharp and like crystal today.
The church bell across the park.
Birds singing.
Images too,
the neon lights of our city last night.
Our drive home from town
looking at the spires of Churches piercing the sky.
For some reason all of these sights,
these sounds,
reassure me-
like being wrapped in a blanket of love.
Perhaps today is a day for walking along the river.
Kick some leaves.
11:50 now.
Sunday.

I saw him walking with the sticks bundled , under his arm. Shuffling along slowly going home, to his fire.
