Words rise much like the sun does 4:30 not 4 not 5 and your absence is as piercing as the rays across a sky, this sky the same sky you and I share all these mornings when we are together and apart. Because I know that the sound of the birds here stroke your ears the same way they do mine Identical space carefully divided and separated by miles of just land… just sun… just birds…
