Consolation


standing second
consolation
like that
was the prize
comfort of
feeling what
the space
between
rain drops
where water
doesn’t touch
just a
position following
imperfection

Moonlight Sonata
Changed my mind this is what I hear, do you hear what I hear?  
where water
doesn’t touch
  Oh, I loved that!

Whatcha hear K?

just love the euphimism you use as an ending...

"just a
position following
imperfection"

a fresh look at second place...nice write
