An Eternal Day


Today
the sky is bluer
the winter leaves
a deeper
life-held green
winter’s icy chill
is refreshing
as a crisp dry
white wine
holding within
its delicate taste
the loving warmth
of the latin sun

The air is clean
and clear
as stars on the
darkest night
and a savoured thought
of yesterday
of a solitary hill
and another form
of beauty
suffuses the soul
heats the blood
in remembrance of
an eternal day.
