Ocassions For Gladness
That the sun is crouched
Over the ridge of buildings across
The Hudson, waiting to leap into
Another day, in this hard year of wars
And separations, or that in the brambled ditches
By the marina, wild sunflowers sway
In complete abandon in the briny wind
Are all occasions for gladness after
Nights with their dreams like unsheathed knives.
