Touching

The sun broke
through the rain clouds
the very instant
the cormorant rose and rippled
Autumn-colored
waters.

I’m sure they kissed.

What is this that I have witnessed?

When the spirits borrow
the fleeting body
dreams become tangible
possibilities.

A hand can reach into
another
to comfort and inspire
the soul.
