Porchlight
Ella glimpsed the
neighbor's light
neighbor's light
across backyard fences
in her evenings..
A small back porch light
shining and welcoming
to her bedtime eye..
A comfort she said
living alone as she did
after Dad's departure..
A small light
for her and for us
one of many lights
we cross in our lives
directing our attention
to a luminous Awareness:
what she Is
what we Are...
(My mother, Ella, passed
away in 2000...)
