The day is dense humid and gray
everything else black and green
touched with a sheen
The stark trunks the branches the leaves
bustle of people honking of automobiles
children bursting out
of Dealy Elementary
flaming with cool energy
Girls on the verge of teen hood
holding an upturned umbrella
struggling with the wind
squealing
Boisterous boys their swagger
fresh as Vienna choir boys
The sumptuous life force brings me back to you
I slip in easily
as we do
