la monde d'jour

arqios

 

"la monde d’jour"

 


a kosmos of the day
loosens itself from morning’s sleeve, 
small radiances drifting out 
like fruit‑dust shaken off a market stall.

streets breathe in temporary constellations, 
each passerby carrying a private sky 
stitched for daylight use only.

by evening, the world folds its wings, 
tucks it into whatever eave stays warm, 
and waits for tomorrow’s version 
to rise with a different face.

    much enjoyed

  • sorenbarrett

    Pleasantly comfortable the warmth of its serenity woven in surreal cloth felt good against the skin and its tune was pleasant to the ear. I loved this one Cryptic it was fanciful but real in some esoteric way. A fave my good friend

    • arqios

      That is a threshold hoped to be crossed. Thanks for confirming that fanciful reality. Most deeply appreciate you dear friend πŸ•ŠοΈπŸ™πŸ»

      • Tristan Robert Lange

        What a beautiful piece, my friend. The ordinary becomes cosmic, every stranger contains an unseen universe, and the entire world quietly remakes itself overnight. I absolutely loved this, Rik. A fave. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

          A fine, erm, Spanish titled poem there A. lol.
          As I said, I'm no good at languages. Fido knows 3,467 languages, but he doesn't brag about it, e.g. He says 'Le woof". Oh it's nutty! lol.

            Fido must know Fifi, then! 🐩πŸ€ͺ
