Book two of impromptu trilogy.

  The Evening Light Upon a Green Chaise Lounge


As all things existing before consciousness
persuade the timer on your neighbor's rainbirds

toward a quiet that is rather somber, but congenial,
there still remains your son's drum sounds.  You smile.

A Sunday evening in late spring where beauty is
music eternal, like angels with wings of Spanish

lavender.  Desire lives among us as the feast
of desire and what would chastise us for that?

What is prohibited the seraphim is prohibited to rainbirds
yet you're sitting on a chaise lounge, eddying about

an unclear thought which is a bit unnerving.
But the drum sound is so clean you imagine its father.
