things that pass me by..

People on the street corner gently touching finger tips, a lost balloon in the sky
a gentle breeze just out of reach, my cat on the prowl
an annoying fly buzzing by, fast and anxious cars
a night, a morning, an afternoon,
the cop car that was just in my review mirror
the famously unknown, the chin raisers, the quiet
currents and waves and full days
the possible friend, the probable enemy
the occasional opportunity
