| "Stars Over Casco Bay", oil, by Elizabeth Fraser |
He sat in the dealership
doing nothing –
not noticing other people,
not preparing to-do lists,
not listening to anxious thoughts.
He simply sat in silence
as the planets and stars sailed out
not noticing other people,
not preparing to-do lists,
not listening to anxious thoughts.
He simply sat in silence
as the planets and stars sailed out
on their timeless journeys
and his blood held a steady course
through trustworthy veins
and flawless, unselfish arteries.
