Proof


 
Standing in the evening’s rising
blue and gold and red and purple,  

predicating new autumnal cool,
we school our bodies to stay close.

Your chin rests on my shoulder:
bolder now to touch, as if aware

that growing older with the year
is an accomplishment:

message sent – received: proof
of something secretly believed.
