Intent

 

Intent.

 

I saw light splash itself 

early this morning

all down the blue spikes

of dying irises,

it lit each snail shell, 

hugged nibbled acorns 

and fell over butterflies

emerging from chrysalis.

 

I watched dusk kissing

roses this evening

as spiders spin webs 

before day\'s finish  

while gilt heads

of filled honeybees 

fly leg-heavy 

to nectar-fed Queens.

 

I spent minutes of time        

viewing small life     

using light wisely

and learnt why

            intent is worth the fight.
