and so does the sky.
Humans are such a small part
of the bigger consciousness
of the natural world.
We tend to see only ourselves
and our own concerns,
but there is so much more going on.
Right after the funeral,
a hummingbird kept buzzing by.
My friend laughed and said, “Maybe it's Ross!”
I even wrote her a big poem
about a hummingbird falling in love with her.
