New Light

Expand by clicking.


New yard light at the neighbor's on the hill,

Hi-tech LED, low wattage, more focused,

Which is to say more down, and now

They are happy in their dusk-lit yard,

And I am happy in my deeper dark,

From horizon to horizon i have stars,

Half a universe to light the path.







—with a phrase from a Jim Harrison/Ted Kooser collaboration.
