a moment's breath

in the sudden brightness
of a bowl of sunlight

the very faintly glowing
red of a fallen sumac branch

no wind
and no sound
reach this still and silent place

AHHH I am going to curl up in that small bowl of sunlight and snooze, soaking up the last bit of warmth. Thank you...sigh...just in case- I am carrying matches in my pocket.
