Glass panes divide
the trees and sky
in separate rectangles.

Strains of a sitar reverberate,
forming labyrinth of octaves

Putting away the wall clock
from my view,
you take with me through
the channels in floor design,

hovering over flowers
on my curtain.

Outside,
daylight and darkness
change their shifts

a tabla comes alive.

We glide along
ripples of high and low
in quiet hours.

I haven't been around much of late, so I've been catching up with everything, and alot of you. I like your cadences, and you have a wonderful way of re-imagining ordinary images. I like it!
