The white van
Pulls up into the parking lot
She gets out the morning’s light
On her long red hair

The summer sky
Above the sea is blue on blue
Sparrows are chirping
In the trees

She turns smiles
And waves to him
Seems so genuinely glad
That they are here

Together  Perhaps
There had been a gap
In the space time continuum
A slip by some small degree

And for a moment
However briefly
One found himself
In an alternative reality

Where suddenly
Without warning
He was happy

"The white van
Pulls up into the parking lot

I read this as Sun rising above cloud. thrilling   beauty.

and the left poem and the last S.

Happiness is not from begging. It is a blessing. you are so wonderful to put into a poem.
