30 square feet
yes, that's about all -
my little piece
of heaven and earth;
my window to
the sky, the sea,
and passing clouds
as I weave dreams;
the trees, the birds,
my plants, and weeds;
I have it all -
what more do I need?
a little patch
of morning sunshine,
a cosy space
for evening blues,
where I fill and empty
myself too;
yes, 30 square feet
to peep in, look out,
give grace for all
that I have and not.
