a walk in the sun

a walk in the sun
yesterday I walked in the sun
all the little grey things were out
me, the hoppy little birds, and an elegant grey cat
who walked with me awhile

it was deceptive though
the sun shone
but it was cold
and there was wind

i took pictures and my hands froze
and i walked till my muscles burned
for lack of exercise these last few months
a good burn

today is not so sunny
another grey day

holding a kind of darkness i recognize
but do not wish to ever be familiar with
again
a walk in the sun
