Offering

Kowinski photo

Saturday morning and the trades
 are back trading out of the east
 offering their samples of cloud
 each the only one of its kind
 and each of them changing even
 as it is offered only once
 without a word except the one
 sound of hushing to say that this
 is all happening in secret
 this unrepeatable present
 only today for the lucky one

--W.S. Merwin
