Just Now

Just now…
Putting the rubbish out,
slam of the bin lid,
thoughts on myriad things,
the sky met me like a lover;
put his arms around me,
amethyst cool, and said, “hello”.
I looked up at his vast open face
and kissed him for taking me
oh so gently in his arms.
He whispered in my ear,
“Everything is just fine!”
I gave him my best crescent smile,
and went back inside,
soft and light as a star.
