Focus on the table
the chair

and how the suns rays
warm

both pieces
not too hot but

just enough
to feel the heat on the back

of your legs
which will then draw

your gaze to the window
with its crosspatch

pattern of lines
on the glass

and now that you
know the source of the warmth

you'll feel it even more

as our feelings guide our
observations

and vice versa
