Morning Cool


Walking through the early dew
bare feet clad in Tevas,
showering toes in night-wrung water
still lying cool
in morning shadows.
Great blue sky arcing wide
crossed like watercolors running
long white cirrus feathers, streaking
cross the sky as if morning might be stretching
and inviting me to dance
while we both still have our cool
