Here's a poem for you this evening. Hope you had a peaceful day. Be easy on yourself, and I will do the same. :) The first line is the title in this one. Love, C.A.
the thinnest man in the sun.
Keeping time,
he throws crumbs
to any bird.
It’s true, he says.
For as long as I live, for as long
as you live,
I’ll be dusting feathers
from my jacket.
When it rains, he sells watches.
No insurance for the buyer,
but ten dollars
is all it takes
to slide one on the wrist.
That’s how Billy made it
through the winter.
C.A. MacConnell
