‘Tis by good grace
this ordinary
summery sun
should shine
in this particular time and place. . .
Rays come down
in warm and gentle stream
and, opportunities
to bask oneself in it
abound.
It’s about as good a ground
as anything,
as I have found,
seeming common though it be,
to give thanks for,
remembering such days
have come
a many score
and will do yet so,
for many more.
