PAD 2 - space poem

For today's prompt, write a space poem.



A Room of One's Own


I am lucky
I have this box.

I am lucky I have this box
to be in.

I am lucky I have this box to be 
in alone.

I am lucky I love to be alone.
My world is calm and gracious and full.

So many, so many, have no space, no space,
no room to turn around, even in their own minds.

The lemons explode outside my window.

Outside my window, the geese fly in form
across the clean, broad sky 

like fingers, a light scratch across
the broad surface of his back.

His back. Come back.

I am lucky to be 
here alone

to have all 
I need  

almost all 
I need.
