Lazy afternoon,
sprawled on my bed,
book and window open,
reading to the rain's syncopated rhythms,
dozing,
dreaming,
waking,
wandering through mind-drifts of memories
...the farm at Barwon Downs,
...hiking Mt. Takao in autumn,
...planting the chestnut with Dad,
while listening to the rain, reading.
