The buzzing of bees, and silence of honey
A child waits at a zebra crossing
Dry, wet and again dry, tortoise-shell shelter
A last goodbye, vibrations in a wire
A puddle by a river and beyond, the sea
The interactions of galaxies, an insect moves flowers
Seven tears shed, embraced as laughter
Coins in an upturned hat, elsewhere, starch on shirt collars
Glowing amber streetlights, birdsong, the clock strikes three

Wonderful poem. Love the way it reads, it moves.
reminds me of a flash photo session, a trip in the mind with images...that sort of thing. Brilliant stuff. -

Nice write! Lots of ... adjectives? I think that's what it is! Anyways, I liked how you put details, and lots of emotion. I really, really liked this poem! Great job!
