. . . do not walk by
without pausing
to attend to this
rather ridiculous performance.

It could mean something.
It could mean everything.
It could be what Rilke meant, when he wrote:

Let me
keep my mind on what matters,
which is my work,

which is standing still and learning to be
astonished. —Mary Oliver

How could I answer the child? I do not know what it is any more than he.”—Walt Whitman, Leaves of Grass

rounding, slowly, over
the half month to still another
perfect circle—

the shining eye
that lightens the hills
that lays down the shadows — Mary Oliver

But all my life—so far—
I have loved best
how the flowers rise
and open, how

the pink lungs of their bodies
enter the fire of the world
and stand there shining
and willing…— Mary Oliver
