Swung in the breeze



Swung in the breeze 

And is it a waste to while and wonder 
the unworked idle hour
to sit and stare as clouds shift, shadow 
snowy Canigou sparkling
most of the way to Spain 
or watch small birds fly in, fly out
(who told them of sunflower seeds?)
suspended, hung in the breeze

What then if I catch it, tether and pin it
preserving the moment in amber? 
Forever the clouds, the snow shine, the birds
suspended, swung in the breeze.
