forgotten matters

feast your eyes 
gulp down this scene
where daisy heads bob with
trampolining raindrops; and
outside my triple-glazed glass
birth of clouds in light's infancy
coax a dream from my locked door

I forgot to look at my garden stirring
misread the emails that were scent
forgot to breathe in
the todays that came yesterday
which fogged a sun's light
to a graveyard
where the clocks had stopped

an open window
smelling salts for the here and now
gives birth to fledgling seconds
fattening on this moment
bathing in pond-water sparkles
nudging me closer and closer
giving back time to a blind man
