subtle hopeful shimmer

subtle hopeful shimmer
in the ash tray
catching some extra sunshine
the day before to get
him through another cloudy day
the weather no longer seems
to govern his mood
rises above that of any ‘normal’
or recognizable place he has been
sitting still enough to be a painting
too long and it’s time to move
where his heart might be appreciated
and no one really knows
as he often finds out
searching so hard can reveal
that what is being search for
lies quietly beneath his fingers…
