We Said Hello



Today   the sun sang with spirit
with streaks of light so dazzling
that the warm   dizzy breeze was in love

Today   I walked as if my bones needed exercise
only to see beautiful women smiling   and
without really knowing why

we said hello   and my heart clapped its hands
excitedly   and the sun sang with spirit
and small birds joined in   light floated

with the breeze   and the whole day opened
its eyes   and one tree after another took the breeze
in its arms   and

all of the colors of the day were laughing
even in the shade   and all of the beautiful women
smiled at me   and we said hello
