SUN

the sultry summer sun
lies in pools
on the windowsill
the kitchen counter
my forearm

i wrap myself
in its translucence
and drift home

I love when poems lie in pools and this one surely does. The sun is on my windowsill right now. I could feel the warmth on my forearm.

This moves so deftly from impersonal to personal and then universal. I love it!

Oh, the light touch! Nothing hits home harder at times than the lightest touch, such as in this.
