Ripples
If we are ever here to feel
In the sudden seeing of flight
Birds overhead, wings spreading
To the coming azure night
A cats purr
Lying close within the night
If we were ever truly present
As we talk to another one
Against city din and clash
If we cared how it begun
Ripples in this fabric
Within the whole as we begun
Ignoring that which is in front of us
Longing only for the next
The instant rise beyond
Forgetting all the rest
Is no one among us
Even ready for the test?
