Keeping Company

I will allow one small fear to burrow,
Nest and rest within daily tasks and chores.
Only one small fear, brown scurry glimpse
Hardly noticed, but ever there in scent
Motion or thought;

Small fear, you need be no larger or loud
No magic wand embellish your shape,
Your sound; it swells aloud and around
These still moments.
