I befriended the moon
at college.
I befriended the sun
at 30.
I befriended ladybugs and dandelion
puffs at 5,
plants generally at 10.
Perhaps the moon and sun
were beyond me then.
Too much a given,
too powerful to gaze at directly.
Dandelions were closer,
more friendly,
but still signs of the sources of life
and their ebb and flow.
