The Threshold

Awake in bed in the mid-June dawn with the criss-crossing shower of birdsong, the huge stare of an Augustan iris. The slight wave of joy and fear of this quiet onslaught of light where all is the same in the vastness of the threshold, thoughts soaring, lingering, crumbling, the idle magnificence of a loitering emperor getting ready for summer with the slight tremor you have sensed since a child under your earth, the quivering mirage of the horizon, the gardens giving on to gardens all the way down to the sea, echoes of the "away" enlarging.
