walking the hill
i hadn't walked the hill
in months
but this morning's cool seventies
gave me reason
and a lovely scene it was
overlooking all that prairie
under variegated sky
on the way home
high humidity
caused me
pause
to catch my breath
and while bending down
hands on knees
there on the ground
i saw
the tiniest of spiders
making his way across the gravel
pebbles looking dainty to me
were GIANTS
in his path
he mostly went around
but now and then
would enter
into a crevice between
two huge boulders
i’d lose him for a moment
but then he would reappear
scurrying on his way
up and over
i was awed to
see him at all
and what’s more
experience something like adoring
affection
(perhaps because he
reminded me;)
we really are
part
of a greater story
than you and i see
as we go about our days
over, under
around
and through
