Got out of bed
again today
dressed
and went off
to meet with
friends.
We sat
and talked
for hours.
Two of us
stood in the sun
after the third
had gone
talking longer
before
we said farewell
until
the next time
we
get out of bed
to meet with
one another.
I came home
said hello
to the cats
and my daughter
when she arrived
then
took a nap
depleted by
the recent arrival
of a
mysterious presence
still saying nothing
about
who he is
or
what he wants
though intimating
we must not
lose touch
even for a minute.
