One of Those Long Walks

(C) R.L.K.

The warmth of this February day
surprises us. Reaching the top of a hill,
we pause to consider the way
the sun, angling out from the clouds will
throw light down on the grass and trees
as if it were the middle of
summer, as if trying to please
us, and for a while that is enough.
