Put all I am into a box—
And what would I have?
Confusion.
Groping around, as if I were blind.
Arms prostrate, fingers able but in search
Of some elusive beast.
Or a hidden treasure.
Images, painted in my mind of daffodils,
Delicately dancing out of a Wordsworth poem.
But, if I am blind,
How vast is the daffodil?
As tires spin around the pavement—
Leaving their stationary mark;
I spin. With impunity, leaving my mark.
Going nowhere.
A glance resounds like the thunder, or church bells.
Do I need someone, to define who I am?
Would they be better equipped—
More capable?
Or is my definition in who they are?
To melt myself away,
Like snowflakes
In a childhood memory.

You and your sister are quite a team. You linked to an empty blog! Who does that? Anyway, thanks for the encouragement and a fun lunch yesterday.
