Geometry

 by Mark Lario

Sometimes I see it as a straight line

drawn with a pencil and ruler

dissecting the circle of the world

or as a pollen-laden Bumblebee all yellow and black

clumsily navigating a pink-purple Clover.

Looking at the sun emerging from a cumulus,

sunbeams radiating and warming our hearts.

Perhaps it’s coneflowers generating their health-blessing flowers

or a sedum’s thick waxy cuticles defeating a hot July heat 

We look out our window – a car’s or a castle’s 

and see our gentle lives entwined.
