James Penha – Bright Stars


James Penha

Bright Stars


I listen for the Word
that creates
my place in space
among the stars
and the leaves
and what is left
to us
when all that’s left
to us
are bright
stars
expanding endlessly
away from me.

My place is on this page;
though this page
may have no place
except this place
I listen for the Word.
