Complementary

Chris Cowan

somewhere in the mist
a bird irrupts in laughter;
amused by the tingling dewdrops
or the dancing, fragile air.
I sit on a discarded log
disguised in aquamarine lighting
on the forest floor,
and its only natural
That while I succumb to
the beauty of the world
I think of you
and amidst the mist
I miss you.
