The sun is with us always
for months and months
there is light when we wake
and we sleep and then
suddenly
the sky fades and the flowers
have lost their petals
when we weren’t looking
Remember to look up
It is easy to be caught by the passage of seasons and important to remember to look.
For more passages, observed and otherwise, my fantasy novel, The Guests of Honor, is available here. Its sequel, With Honor Intact, can be found here.
