There's a tiny sphere of crystal light
On the tip of a twig of the cherry tree
Outside my window - The only sparkle
There among all those unleafed but poignant trees together.
The time is noon; surely then it isn't dew.
It has been there an hour, so surely it isn't water.
It glistens like a little ball of hope,
Yea, even of promise there, for me.
Perhaps's it is sap budding ooze
Or a bird birthing.
I salute to the sun - and me
After my erstwhile prayer.

I ran to get my binoculars
But, alas, now it is gone.

March 25th, 1983

Crystal ball of dew is like life.
Anticipated, here for now, and passed on tomorrow.

a fabulous poem

Reviewed on October 30, 2004
From amongst the seemingly hopeless, there,
sparkles hope like a gem.

You know it is always there for you,
you didn't need the binoculars.

~ Sandie May Angel :o)
