look out
they are out there
and ever so gladly
they will trip you up
stopping you
in your tracks
as you attempt
to go about your agenda
the little ones
are the most powerful
the sidwways glance
of winter sunshine
the pool
of honeyed light
settling
here and there
you swoon
and
begin again the dreaming
marzipan,
coated in dark chocolate,
baklava,
drippping in honey
smokey teas
with kites of steam
swirling
from ceramic cups...
