Beckoning Benches

Coronavirus or not

I still enjoy
the daily circuit
of the sun
the gradual changes
the way the seasons run --

the way light
filters through maple leaves --
the art that God arranges
the arms of she
who welcomes me . . .

I sit among all of these
and whisper a prayer of thanks
that there remain
so many things
no plague can take away
