pkern Posted December 2 Report Share Posted December 2 Welcome If you believe nothing is always what's left after a while, as I did,If you believe you have this collection of ungiven gifts, as I do (right herebehind the silence and the averted eyes) If you believe an afternoon can collapse into strange privacies-how in your backyard, for example, the shyness of flowers can be suddenly overwhelming, and in the distance the clear goddamn of thunder personal, like a voice,If you believe there's no correct response to death, as I do; that even in grief (where I've sat making plans) there are small corners of joyIf your body sometimes is a light switch in a house of insomniacsIf you can feel yourself strainingto be yourself every waking minute If, as I am, you are almost smiling . . . ~ Stephen Dunn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
