the sudden sun

out walking for lunch
an opening
sky
the sudden sun
blue
warmth on my skin
the slooshing puddles
underfoot
and no ferryman
to cross

a sound 
approaching overhead
straight towards me
with the sun-rays

I look up
at an arrow
shooting
my way

wild geese
in flight

this lunchtime
pointing the way
lifting
and piercing
my heart

with the feel
of its Northbound
sound
