Lily conversation

I imagine growing out of the ground

feeling water, fresh, a pure smell.

I then take hops like a bunny

find myself enjoying myself

partly because I have the nerve

then wondering if anybody is watching?

I care and don’t care as I hop

carelessly leaping now and twisting

into awkward shapes, laughing aloud

then suddenly aware there is a feeling

a feeling in the world I think I’m grasping

and I’m holding a hand or

as I take a deep breath

I think it is there.
